looking for the impossible

Wish I also could find the Am oil Mantle, but I do have both sides of the Mays in poor shape somewhere packed away. I will have to try and dig all my winner circle cards out.

Larry:

You know I collect and have the '65 Covington Phillies tile. And like you need the Stuart that we have a deal about.

So, count me in as someone who collects one of the sets you are looking for.

YES. And it is different than the others. The one I saw had no facsimile autograph.

I know where it is too, but can't get it.
