Hey Glenn, that was a nice find! For all the years I've looked in Winnipeg, attended shows, garage sales, flea markets, etc. I've never found even one regional card that was produced here, and stayed in the city. So you just might have got the last HC card. I'll keep searching though!

Nice Foxx Leon 1937 OPC is one of my favorite issues of the 30's. But the 1936 WWG has also held a place in my heart because it had both Gehrig and DiMaggio in the set. If you turn DiMaggio over has his nickname listed as "Deadpan Joe" which matches the photo perfectly. Great thread on vacation or would contribute.
