Sometimes the mail days are small. That isn't a bad thing.

Couldn't quite get them all in, so one more item.

View attachment 362196Banty Red custom card of Dixie Walker. Not shown as a Dodger unfortunately, although I wish he had been. Lefty O'Doul is in the actual 1933 Delong set and the only Dodger representative of the very small set. The cartoonish features of this set captured my interest as a kid and it's always been one of my favorites from vintage times. They are not easy cards to find on a bargain budget, so prepare to spend. I have maybe a half dozen of the originals and this was the only Banty I have been able to win. They have been quite popular, selling for some big $

Did you ever see the remake Topps did of these back in 2007 called Flashback Fridays?
