Alan, Nice pick up...That's the hires soda jerk guy...He's in my Hires sign above...Seems like there is some story behind him...Something about they stopped using him in ads at some point for some reason...As I recall there's some pretty serious Hires collectors...Your scorer is probably super rare.

You were probably pretty happy to find it...can you relate any the details of bagging it..can you say the flea?
