Default 1944 World Series Trade Card ? for "Sellinger Display Service"




... This is not a postcard ; it's the size and thickness but the back is blank. The guy in the suit interviewing Art "Happy" Felsch appears to be Minneapolis Millers/St. Paul Saints radio announcer Jerry Harrington , which makes sense because after all it's the World Series and there's a war on and the big networks filled the press box with microphones and live feeds to every market possible. And that voice sold a lot of Wheaties to a lot of midwestern kids gathered around their radios listening to 'the ballgame'..


...Charlie Sheen played Felsch in "Eight Men Out".....good flick.
