Handsome Dan Yale Mascot Poster?
 

Hi-

I recently acquired the Handsome Dan Yale Mascot poster type item pictured below and I was wondering if anyone can help with some questions I have regarding it. It is 14 inches long, 11 inches wide. It is blank backed and is on a heavy paper/cardboard material. Does anyone know what this was used for? Was it a promotional item given away back when Dan was alive? Please provide any other information regarding this item. Please also share your own Handsome Dan items.

Isn’t Carlton the resident Yale expert? Or is he Harvard? :confused:

Hey there Alan,

it's been a while, I hope all is well!
I can't add much to the discussion... but very cool piece.
I'm guessing Joe (vintagesportscollector) could most likely help... but I don't think he's on here much these days.
And as Rob stated, Carlton could probably add some info as well.
