"City Livery...... give me a call."
When did telephones become so common that an ad would suggest that you "give me a call"? Sometime after WWII would be my guess. Certainly not in the 1800s. ![]() Last edited by Sean; 04-20-2015 at 04:11 PM. |

The mount is clearly not period, but I am curious about the photo. I assume it is a modern fake, but it would be worth looking at it more closely. Bottom line is to stay away.

Looks like a copied fake from the real deal that measures 4 1/4 x 6 1/2 . If you Google - Paulding clippers baseball, you'll see this item by clicking -
Paulding, Ohio baseball team-Sheaff: ephemera. Its a nice looking item and has more information about it including players names. |

Well, looking up the real one from the other comment, it does say "Give me a call."

"Give me a call" predates the invention of the telephone. Calling just meant visiting and the word transferred to visiting someone on the telephone.

In defense of the item, I can assure you that those are not the Los Angeles Clippers. I have checked all the ears and noses and there is not one match.

I would like to hold this in my hand to check the photograph , that being said the paper on the back looks wrong but it could be the image as shown . Also the size is correct .
