Ted, that's interesting that your card was used. Collectors can find prints of the painting of your card that are autographed by Mantle. I beleive they were officially made to be signed by Mantle, though I can't remember who originally marketed them. If a collector can't afford the painting, he or she can purchase the print. Board members can say, "I didn't know Mantle or the painter, but I knew the guy who owned the card."

I saw a history of Paramount Cartoons, a division of Hollywood's famous Paramount Studios, and there was a picture of Dvorak as an artist in the 1950s.
