Value is relatively low, <$100

There were 5-10 Newspapers that put them out. To me they should go by
circa 1936 Newspaper Sports Stamps but they are generally known by the most common ones from Detroit.

I meant this particular stamp. So the Chicago one was in multiple papers?

No, of course not. The same exact pictures and stamps were in different newspapers. Maybe we could compare this to T206 .....many different mfg'ers but the same poses (for the most part).

good thinking Leon...liken it to a t206 and everyone will understand!
