It also has 39;39;a slogan for 194339;39;: NEVER LET YOURSELF GET BLUE, JUST THINK WHAT OUR YANKS39;LL DO. The blotter measures 9-1/839;39; x 3-7/839;39;. It is in good condition as pictured. There is some soiling from handling, some light wear, and it was used on the back for two short (address ?) lines. |
