This is postcard ad for First Philly show. That show was Baseball card overload for a 14 year old. It was maybe the 5th or 6th card show I attended with my Dad. Paul Pollard sold us a set of 1940 playballs. (First cards my Dad bought as a kid..He had a complete 41 set but only a few 40's) I remember someone had some 1941 play ball packs he sold and I picked two wrappers off the floor. Saw my first Maggie error card at the auction saw a Joe McCarthy hat sell for $8.. We got a 1905 W601 of Clevland. (Still have it). Many happy memories of Philly shows mostly if the great folks I spent time with.
