"Gene Trow" and "Bill McWilliams"...in the slow process of cleaning off eighty years of grime ; they were exposed to the atmosphere but fortunately not to sunlight ; still crisp and a lot of gloss remaining...the attribution reads "Photo By Saint Paul Daily News" ; the "Saint" is completely spelled out ; on some others they used the abbreviation "St.".....

...my druggist wants to know why I buy so much alcohol and solvents....

Hi Mike,
So do I understand you correctly that these are full-size cards that look like they were collected separately and then fitted into the poster (as opposed to a poster from which individuals were cut)?

...they are very well-done home-made posters -- nineteen Millers and twenty Saints , both "1935"

..cards are intact....


...possibly some new vars. and even new confirmations of your rumored names..

..no Gibson or Crabtree or Spencer or Andrews though...

I actually believe those posters were issued by Worch.

They were found in St. Paul, the same city where Worch operated.

Mike, do you agree that it seemed to have been a Worch issue? It makes sense to me. I know one person I spoke to sees it as more of a Saint Paul team issue of 1935. I would like to get all the names from the poster, which I still don't have. I can get about half, which I'm about to do-
