Net54baseball.com Forums - Nice Jack Dempsey Signed Postcard for Trade

http://i1226.photobucket.com/albums/...ckdempsey2.jpg

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. Haha...I know this sounds like the ole "I found this in grandpa's attic" story, but it's true. My dad got a couple of these for my brothers and me back in the day. He was a huge fan.

If anyone is interested in it, I'm looking to trade for vintage baseball cards off of my need list (below).

On a side note...unsigned versions of this postcard are available on eBay, so you could pick up one of those and combine it with this autographed one to put together a pretty cool matted, framed 'Manassas Mauler' presentation piece showing both sides of the postcard (comparable to the scan I put at the start of this thread).

If you have any questions, PLMK.

Thanks.

If you have nothing off of my need list, I am also very interested in these:
• HOF'ers in nice shape from the 50's and 60's, ungraded
• Willie Mays, Hank Aaron, Roberto Clemente & Mickey Mantle cards
• 1958 Topps HOF'ers
• Tough to find errors and variations from the 50's through the early 70's
• 1964 Topps Stand-Ups (need virtually any in nice shape)
• 1961-67 Topps high numbers and SP's
• 1963 Fleer BB stars and HOF'ers in exmt or better shape
• 1954 Red Heart BB (need virtually any in nice shape)
• 1968 Milton Bradley
• 1972 Topps FB high numbers (need these in exmt+ shape: 271 Warfield AP, 277 Eller AP, 304 Dale, 308 Morrall, 312 Marsalis, 336 Marshall, 341 Butkus)
• 1972-73 OPC Hockey starter set with stars and/or high numbers
• T-206's
