I had never heard of a 12 player-panel before. That is crazy.

So little is really known about these Sports Stamps if you ask me. Very underappreciated and undervalued IMO. Especially when you can find them in virtually pristine shape from when they were cut from the papers. wonder if there also isn't a complete page or two out there somewhere with these stamps still on them. Scott Russell's recent auction had a complete newspaper page with a Walter Johson Rinkydink stamp on it from 1927. Had never seen one of those before.
