Hi,

The top line on the card actually says Tokyu vs. Nankai- not Tokyo. The Flyers were the Tokyu Flyers in 1947 and then again from 1949-1953 (they went by Kyuei Flyers in 1948), so the card is definitely not Mutsuo Minagawa, the Nankai Hawks great pitcher. The second line says that the picture is of Minagawa scoring.

Mutsuo Minagawa is in the Kabaya-Leaf set and I also have 2 menko cards of him from the late 1950s that I have gotten recently, so keep searching one of his cards will come up.

Thanks for the great series, keep it going.

Jeff
