    Win, Lose, or Draw Tribe By FRANCIS E. STANN latsWip KncfgMg Oooooh-Day for the Autograph Hounds Probably the first toumairient at which the genuine, bug-bitten golf fan* were outnumbered turned out to be one of the bigger and more democratic social events of the season. Mingling with Secre- tary of the Navy Porrestal, Gens. Eisenhower, Grove and Bradley, Admiral Nlmitz, Senator Taft and Attorney Gen- eral Clark, among others, were upward of 7,000 other guests of the Columbia Country Club, com- posed chiefly of autograph hounds and camera fiends. And who do you suppose most of the guests came to see? Der Bingle. Harry Lillis Crosby. As far as the people were concerned Bing was the biggest celebrity in the Celebrities Tournament. Bing Crosby is owner of a major league baseball team and there were two other baseball owners on hand, Clark Griffith and Del Webb. But neither owns a set of pipes like Crosby. That was the difference. That was the difference between Bing and Jack Dempsey, Gene Tunney, Bobby PMaeb BUnn Jones, Gene Sarazen, Babe Didrikson and even Baseball Commissioner Happy Chandler, a well-known tenor. It was the star-gazer’s dream come true. It was manna from Heaven for the camera shop*, whose cupboards must be empty of film. It was Oooooh-Day for the bobby soxers and autograph hounds. And for the comparatively small number of old-time golf fans the glorious pages of time were turned back when Jones, Sarazen, Bobby Cruick- shank and Walter Hagen played in the same foursome.

  • A Look Back Helps Understand Exhibit Supply Cards
    J. Frank Meyer, left, of ESCO worked from offices on Printers’ Row in Chicago. This 1914 photo shows the vending card machines for “art models” against the wall.The photo was obtained from Chet Gore and appeared in Bob Schulhof’s “Penny Arcade” newsletter in 1990. A look back helps understand Exhibit Supply cards By George Vrechek J. (John) Frank Meyer was born in Peoria, Illinois, in 1881. He came to Chicago with a fifth grade education, but by 1907 headed a company that became a leader in its industry, employing some 285 people at one time in its Chicago plant. His company was Exhibit Supply Company, and among its products were arcade cards of sports figures. Meyer would be amused to find that his cards, which he sold profitably for ½ cent each, are still scrutinized by collectors today and purchased at considerable expense. Amusement park arcade memories As a kid in the 1950s, I bought exhibit cards from arcade vending machines at Riverview, a Chicago amusement park. The cards didn’t have any numbers, the backs were blank and the cards didn’t fit nicely into the shoe boxes with the regular cards. To make my exhibits blend a little better, I cut some of them down to the size of the Topps cards. I have since found exhibits from the 1940s cut by young collectors to match the size of the 1948 Leafs. It was nice to have at least one card of Stan Musial and Joe DiMaggio, but most of the exhibit players were not in their current uniforms, the photos looked old and the colors were pretty well limited to one.
