Three 10.5 x 15" Red Man tobacco advertising posters from the early '50s when men were men. Each features a different big leaguer -- all future HOFers. In one Johnny Mize doffs his Yankee cap under the words "My steady chew for years." The other two have Enos Salughter and Ralph Kiner on Red Man cards, which came in the packages. Each poster pitches a "Big League Style Baseball Cap At No Extra Cost" promotion, has a likeness of a Red Man pack ("Made from Good Cigar Leaf"), and the slogan "Red Man, America's Best Chew". Bold colors, yellow or red (Mize) backgrounds, matted on different color surfaces in gorgeous cherrywood frames sized to 16 x 20". Overall NRMT or better.
