Posted By: <b>jamie</b><p>Anyone recognize this Japanese premium which depicts the American and Japanese all star teams from the 1934 tour? It's a really cool looking piece and it sold for much lower than I expected. Is it very common- I can't ever remember seeing one before?<br /><br /><img src="http://i18.ebayimg.com/01/i/000/96/99/14ea_1.JPG"><br /><img src="http://i1.ebayimg.com/03/i/000/96/99/1645_1.JPG"><br /><img src="http://i18.ebayimg.com/06/i/000/96/99/159b_1.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Mike</b><p>I collect original photos. And especially mid 20's to the late 30's. I have seen this one or one very similar to it. The Japan tour of 34 was photographed very heavily.. The cameras must have been flashing every 5 minutes during their entire visit. There are many many original photos of the players, their wifes, their opponents, on and on. It is fun to collect them. I have one where Ruth and Foxx are wearing kimonos. But yes I have seen similar ones such as this. I love them. There also many copies out there as well, so be careful. I feel that the originals are a bargain. A snapshot back in time. I love em.
