Default Opinions on CJ WAJO

I was at an antique/flea market at the state fairgrounds today and was relatively excited to pick up a handful of arm and hammer bird cards just like the ones my mom gave to me that she collected as a child in the 40's for a buck each.

Then I saw this! It was in a unlocked display box with a bunch of lew alcindor cards and to the left was a bunch of old boxing photos local to mn. My heart started beating faster. The guy said it came out of a scrapbook...and he showed me some of the other items from the same scrapbook...a large ad for a college baseball game...but it was period 1915 or so...and a bunch of old basketball game photos as well. His asking price was very reasonable for what it is. I made an offer...he countered. I could tell it was real but was concerned it may be trimmed.

But it came from a scrapbook...so not likely trimmed I thought.

sure it has a little back damage...but the front is suh-weet!!!!

What do you guys think?
