Description

Rube Goldberg

Vintage fountain pen sketches of Mike, Ike, and Boob McNutt on a 5.5 x 2.75 blue card from the Albert R. Chestnut collection, boldly signed and dated “Mar 20, ‘37.” In fine condition, with a small photo attached to the left blank area. From his Pennsylvania home, Chestnut, a printer by profession, began collecting autographs in 1935. He sent these personally-printed cards to over a thousand celebrities and received favorable replies from the vast majority, finally retiring from collecting to raise his family when postage increased from 2¢ per card! RRAuction COA.
