I am not familiar with the Los Angeles Examiner Sports Stamps you mentioned, but I do like Midget racing. I attended several Midget shows during USAC's swing through Pennsylvania earlier this month.
Pre World War II, many of the top Midget drivers in the country progressed to big cars and eventually made it to Indy.
