Bell Keough is the man who took the picture, I think, rather than a company. ^ A book with the attribution, and reproducing this photo.

Now that's interesting. I still think it is a company name.

Pickup a couple of great Brownie fullbacks. Jim Brown of the Browns completes my 1963 Topps basic set, with 1 card to go for the master (Bob Lilly with the Purple Sky). Marion Motley puts me at 112/144 for the 1951 Bowman's. I love the big team logo icons they put on the football issue that year, sometimes they distract from the main image but for some reason NFL team logos were much more intricate than baseball ones of the period. The 50s and 60s football are fun for being so very cheap to build on the side of my focus projects, only a handful of cards will cost me even $50.

Completed my 61 set with these pickups the last couple weeks. I had a Maynard already but it looks EX-MT and doesn't fit with my shoebox set, so I had to downgrade. Not always easy to find the second series in lower grades, the AFL card must have been late in the year since it seems not many really got handled much unlike the NFL cards. Really like the design, and while there are a number of star rookies, none of the cards cost much. Only 2 cards went over $20 and none over $30. The $'s to fun ratio is hard to beat for 50's-70's football

Here's a pinback I just picked up. It's 7.5 x 5.5 inches. I hope no one minds me posting this in here.

I also have this pin. There's some difference of opinions on it. I've heard football, baseball or political related. Personally, I believe it's probably football Giants related.

Very happy to pick this one up from the West Coast Card Show.
