I had this mistakenly posted in the Boxing section, but now I've seen the light...
My Dad got this autographed postcard at Jack Dempsey's Manhattan restaurant in the 70's, when the fighter used to hang out and hobknob with the patrons. I have a second one somewhere around here, too.
If anyone is interested in it, I'm looking to trade for vintage baseball cards off of my need list.
If you have any questions, PLMK.
Thanks.
If you have nothing off of my need list, I am also very interested in these:
1972 Topps FB high numbers (need these in exmt shape: 271 Warfield AP, 277 Eller AP, 280 Lilly AP, 304 Dale, 308 Morrall, 312 Marsalis, 336 Marshall, 341 Butkus)
1963 Fleer BB (need about 25 more in ex+ or better shape)
1964 Topps (just started upgrading this set, so could use many of the stars in exmt or better shape)
1964 Topps Stand-Ups (need virtually all in nice shape)
1954 Bowman BB (looking for a starter set in ex+ shape)
Plus, I'm always interested in HOF'ers and high numbers in nice shape from the 50's and 60's.
My Need List:
