09/22/03 | Ralph Richards | Joe, I do have several sets laying around somewhere. When they were new they sold for $9.00 in certain local racing stores. I may even have an uncut sheet or two. I did sell one uncut sheet on ebay for $22.00 last year. I think there were at least two different sets maybe three put out by the K & W Printers from Tuckahoe, NJ. Thanks, Ralph Richards |
10/09/03 | Todd J | K&W Race Cards were produced by Dave
Keene and Belford Wilden. Dave used to crew on Bill Brennen's Hemi #5 and also had a local racing paper called Dad's Independent Racing Times, also known as D.I.R.T., during the mid to late 1980's. As a kid, I used to sneak up to the local Wawa waiting for the latest shipment and take them home and cut them up. I had pictures of Wayne Weaver's victory lane shot in the Hemi #5, Chic Cossaboone's "Cheal Dirt and Fast Grass" 7A, and a host of other local racers hanging all over the walls and also a scrapbook. When I started SJDR, I found Dave floating around the net and later, when I helped on the #5, I met Belford, who was still in the printing business, working on camping papers/advertisements.... I'm thinking there was 3-4 sets and also a URC set. If you notice, I believe Chic and Jimmy were from the very first issue... Johnny and Doug were from issue #2. I thought these things were pretty damn neat and have them put away in the box somewheres... Just recently, I found the old scrapbook with all of these clipping and quite a few articles from the AC Press on Jimmy Horton when he was sweeping the Superspeedways in the ARCA division. I am also willing to bet, that these cards that are posted here never left Tuckahoe (until recently), if I am thinking of the right Jennifer... The driver selection was a giveaway. Joe, I will have to dig these out for you to take a look at........ Todd |
