Chicago Broadcaster Sporting News Picture
 
This 6 1/4" x 9 3/8" Sporting News picture of John O'Hara (an early Chicago CBS baseball announcer) was issued in the 1930-32 period. The back is blank and it has not been trimmed; the autograph is not printed. I've had no luck determining if it is part of a larger set.

It's from a scrapbook which contained numerous photos of radio stars. Also included was a postcard from Bob Elson (early Cubs announcer) urging the recipient to vote for him in a Sporting News announcer popularity poll...the card is postmarked August 6, 1932...so there may be a connection to the O'Hara picture.

Is the O'Hara picture part of a larger set? Can anyone provide any information about it?
