Here is my list of distributors but there most likely are others..
ST-Unc/M-Unc 1936 Sports Stamps
Sporting News All Star
Boston American/Sunday Advertiser, Detroit Times, Pittsburgh Sun-Telegraph stamps, Atlanta Georgian-American, LA Examiner ...
all shown above. I believe I referenced something to find the Sunday Advertiser

and think that is 1 of 2 or 3 I have seen. This one shown is associated with the Boston American. I just don't know of the others... I guess they could have come in any paper from 1936 that had that section? Thanks for the confirmation they came in the LA Examiner, if that was what was being referred to...?

I believe those were for Sports Stamps printed in a particular section of the paper only printed on Sunday and could be for any of the known city papers the Sports Stamps were printed in. I've heard they were in a Chicago paper but, have never seen one and can't confirm that. I do know they were also printed in the Los Angeles Examiner, which is not shown or listed anywhere that I'm aware of. Can anyone confirm any other newspapers outside of Boston, Detroit, Los Angeles and Pittsburgh where the Sports Stamps were printed?
