What you need to do though is to Edit your first post to replace the pictures. Leaving overly large pictures anywhere on a page messes up the formatting of a page.

Specific tickets can be challenging. The prewar ones are exponentially tougher than the rest but I don't much care for them because I prefer the ones where the prior year's winning drivers are depicted. That started after WWII. Rose was the first to be on back to back tickets, and his two shown here are also from years he won. His first win was 1941 and there were no races from 1942-45. 1947 was the first year that prior winners were depicted with an image on the next ticket but bypassed 1946 winner George Robson likely because he died in a crash in 1946. So Rose is the only guy shown on a ticket the year he won when he didn't win the past year. I know, too much info.

Balticfox: The Scott PC is Wendell Scott, basically the Jackie Robinson of NASCAR. On the Parkie, it's worse that that: the Rose card is from the Dynajector package of cards that was made by Parkhurst but is two-sided and larger than the regular issue cards. I also have the regular Parkhurst Rose cards, postcards and photos but haven't scanned them yet. Why Mauri Rose? Member of the tribe. Same reason I collect Stirling Moss, Jody Scheckter and Francois Cevert F1 cards, and root for Aston Martin in the current F1 (Lance Stroll).

I also like to collect drivers who have successfully raced across different circuits, like F1, NASCAR, and Indy. Andretti, Foyt, Montoya, etc.
