An amazing two-fer for Jim Davidson -- Cy Young’s second signed government postcard, this one postmarked January 20, 1955 from Newcomerstown, OH, just 10 months before his death, and again one of the old master’s last. Young signed on a newspaper photo taken by Carl Horner which was affixed to the postcard and takes up nearly the entire back side. Signature in blue pen is 9/10 while the postcard is EX-MT with mild soiling.
