1936 Newspaper Sport Stamps Olympians?

[Exhibitman]

Has anyone seen these before? They are part of the Sport Stamp series that are well known in other sports, like this one:



I found a group of 1936 Olympians including Jessie Owens. I will post scans in a few days. They are all from the Los Angeles Examiner.

Anyone else got any of these?

Hey Adam, nice stamps! I have several but they are all baseball. I do believe the sports stamps covered several sport figures, not only baseball.

If you get them graded, I think your only option is SGC. For some reason they only grade the Detroit issues. I sent my baseball Sport Stamps from the Chicago American and they returned them. I sent them to SGC and they graded them - go figure. Here are a couple of samples and they look good in the SGC holders.

I don’t know if anyone grades the Examiner version.
