Neat autograph.
It's a collection I'd love to some day see. Here is a snippet that was cut from the OJ book during editing:
Wharton-Tigar collection at the British Museum, London, United Kingdom: World War II British Agent (spy) and Mining Executive Edward C. Wharton-Tigar’s passion was Cartophily (cigarette card collecting). His collection, reported to have reached approximately two million cards, was bequeathed to the British Museum in 1995 upon his passing. Among many other sets, he collected Old Judges by pose and was a driving force behind expanding the Cartophilic Society (of Great Britain) World Index to include all known Old Judge card variations.
