I have never seen that before, but I like how all the players names are just a little off or letters jumbled than their real contemporaries. Very nice

I picked up a couple of neat Western Union congratulatory telegrams that were sent to Sal "The Barber" Maglie following his no-hitter and win in Game 1 of the 1956 World Series vs. the NY Yankees.
Maglie apparently saved several of these telegrams and they subsequently surfaced in the hobby following his passing in 1992. These two originated from two fellow Italian American families that knew him and sent their well wishes. Ironically, Sal Maglie was also on the wrong side of another no-hitter in 1956. Maglie was the losing pitcher in Don Larsen's historic World Series perfect game (Game 5) on October 8, 1956, less than two weeks following Maglie's no no.

I like those colorful and personal Western Union no-hit telegrams to Sal Maglie. Here's a telegram from Texas Senator J. Tower sending his congrats to a no hit pitcher in the '60s
