Here's a quick sketch made on a first day cover by cartoonist Whitney Darrow, Jr. It shows a boy showing off his basketball skills to a girl. Darrow incorporates the postmark as the ball. The sketch is being offered on eBay for $49.
Note: Sketches on first day covers play a smallish role on this blog. See covers sketched upon by Chon Day and R. Crumb
Whitney Darrow, Jr. plays a larger role here and gets star treatment.
Yes, basketball is important too. Just ask Dr. J. or Sparky.
