The War Cry towel was one he was never able to find, so he was happy to get mine. Oddly, I still have the other 2 towels which are quite similar in word usage still on display, I just moved them into a corner.

I like the idea of trying to get everything from a team’s mail order Golden Age, which for the Dodgers and Giants, I would put at 1958-68. I’ve seen 5 for $6 Weirdo bobbing heads in a Dodgers catalog. Worth $6-7000, today. Does your buddy have those?
