1920 W516-1 "overprints"
 
Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I guess the owner of these cards was too cheap to buy a stamp. The signatures on back are nicely browned, black ink. They say " Save your tablet fronts and win a prize L.A. Becker"....sounds like a nice Jewish guy. Thought they were cool and somewhat unique....I guess I'll start collecting lowly "w" cards, a little bit <img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14> ...regards all<br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1101440629.JPG"> <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1101440672.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Ben</b><p>I bet Mr. Becker wishes he had a photocopier! He wrote each one of those backs out individually. Sounds like an honest, hard working, confectionary-owner guy.

Looking through my pile of random stuff...and seems I have one of these handwritten notes too on my Larry Doyle.
