Al, you are absolutely right! I think most of us have lost out on something and then thought that immediately afterward!

Tom, this is the 14" x 22" version and as far as I know, the only on known

I can imagine. I have never seen one before this one and I have been a part time dealer in movie paper on and off for almost 30 years.

The scarcity of the other sizes is for all movies in general. 14x22 is the standard size for a window card. Some movies might have also had the mini version or the giant version, but like I said, I haven't seen another window card of any size for this title.

Does it have restoration?

Tom, It has two very small areas that look to have had some restoration done to it. One is in the middle on the right hand side that is about 2" long and the other is in the bottom right hand corner that is hard to tell if it is a repair or tape residue. I have a very nice black light and that is all I can ascertain from shining the flashlight on it. I was able to look at the back by having it re-framed recently. I should have taken some photos of the back when I had it opened.

I guess you could have for future sale purposes but knowing you that won't be going anywhere anytime soon. Sounds like it doesn't have much restoration which is really nice. I mean....with a piece that scarce restoration doesn't mean a whole lot but there would likely be some who would be off put by it having a ton of work done.on it.

Picked up this Craig Biggio Gamer.

Here is my Adirondack bat rack. After a few years in the basement, it was finally rigged up so that I could put some of my bats.

Dave (seattlerainiers) gifted this awesome circa 1982 Willie Stargell snap shot. Thanks again Dave that was very kind of you. Today I picked up this 1971 Orioles World Series button. I already have one. However, they seldom appear for sale so I couldn't resist picking it up. If there any interested Oriole collectors out there I would likely be willing to trade for a similar Pirate I need. If not I am pleased to have two of these Sometimes it's the little things that make me the happiest. Edited to add the pin just found a new home.

Default Vandy goes yard!

Here is a Reds scorecard that I just picked up from 6/12/48 @ Reds.
It's neatly scored and a definite must for my advanced Vandy collection.

In the 1st game of a twinbill, Johnny "Double No-Hit" Vander Meer homers for the 1st and only time in his career that spanned the better part of 14 years in the bigs. He must have accidently ran into one...

Vandy also got the win against the visiting Boston Braves 3-1, his 115th career win out of 119.

Breaking barriers again. Jack becomes first black executive of a major tv network. NBC New York 1952. Offseason gig would last until 1954. He regretfully resigned after NBC offered opportunities with only limited responsibilities.

Default Carter Hoffman figures

I was just able to snag some Carter Hoffman figures. I got all the ones pictured except for the Columbia Lion.

The crown jewel is the Dartmouth Indian. It is a very rare jumbo sized piece that I have never seen before. Does anyone else collect these things?

Those are great! Especially the Dartmouth Indian.... brilliant Mascot!

I do love them, but don't collect them. Inside the Park offers a good selection of these via the auction route, and also at the National.

Cool pickups!

Due to condition, I picked this up for dirt cheap. ca. 1954. I had to make a repair to the bottom left. It's not as noticeable in person.
