I have kept this copy of Mosconi's book because it is signed on the back cover. Has anyone every heard of Oak Park Slim? I am uncertain if this is real or a fake done long ago. But, Mosconi almost never said anyone taught him anything, so this is kind of strange. If anyone has any idea's or know anything about the individual this is signed to I would appreciate the information.

Enjoy

Manwon, I just bought that issue of Harper's Weekly you have in the last picture.

I just got three new old original ads, one Greenleaf and two Hoppe's.

And I just bought this original vintage Three stooges metal sign. It is 3-d with the stooges raised as well as the words. It is still sealed. :)

This same sign is for sale on another memoribilla site for $350 but I got a steal

This item is very uncommon, these were handed out at exibitions by the Fats. Most were only stamped on the back, however, this one is both signed and stamped. ;)

I suppose you could say this was the Fat Mans business Card:eek: :D
