we come to the booth of Michael J. Mckee of Pittsburgh PA. Michael
was big on football. Good to see a dealer focus on that rich area.
First up in Michael's booth was a large 57" wide x 22"
tall, c1930 green felt banner with a football kicker on the right,
the name "RESERVE" across the middle, and the football
in the air at top right corner, rare for one of these
banners to have such graphics. Case Western Reserve University
is in Cleveland Ohio, $500.00

Professional Football Hall of Fame. The cover featured a photo of
the building and a huge superimposed overlay photo of Jim Thorpe.
