I've been after a centered "5" for the past three years but either I haven't had the funds when one appeared or one didn't show up when I had the $$. Finally got this one from PWCC's most recent auction. Sure didn't get a bargain, but I love its centering and the way it hits my eye. Very pleased to add this iconic card to my collection.

Love the Texas Tommy!
This one is tough but not as tough as that Tommy

Holy crap, Val!

As a WaJo lover, that's probably the holy grail for me. I'll never own one, myself, but I sure am enjoying looking at yours.

I'm pretty sure this came from the Johnson family scrapbook - Eddie is one of WaJo's sons.
