Interesting early reference to Lionel Carter...although regarding his war stories I could have done without the terms Nips and Japs. I guess it was a sign of those times.

Barry, good luck finding someone who served in WW2 who didn't use those terms then (and many of them never stopped using them)! Amazing story of a young Lionel Carter being lost for days and having a bullet go through his hair--we almost lost one of the card collecting legends before he really began!

Thank you for continuing to post these bulletins, Leon--very interesting reflections on the birth of the hobby.
Of particular note, is the Buchner "Defender and Offenders" set, which contains the rookie card of "Machine Gun" Kelly and, of course, the quite scarce Capone ("no scar") variation. Keep 'em comin'. Michael |

I know Rhett. They were perfectly acceptable terms at the time.
