I don't think there is any way I would ever part with this item, I had wanted it ever since I first saw one and was thrilled to death a couple years ago when Lew had it For Sale on his website...
1909 Atlanta Oversized Postcard of Roy Castleton (I believe there is only one known copy, but I may be wrong, there is also a Bayless known in the set)
