Believed to have hung in Billy Taub's famous clothiers on Broadway in New York City, this circa-1930s gigantic display includes no less than 75 people most identified at the bottom of the image. Featured are Nat Fleischer, Bill Corum, Westbrook, Pegler (many great sports writers), Walter Camp, and Jack Dempsey. Taub's own business card boasted his status as "Tailor to the Royalty of Sportsdom," and he counted the biggest stars of the era as regular customers. Matted, measures 50x34" including the gorgeous original frame.
