And this is his picture (of my great-grandfather) from that same day. It hangs in my office over my desk.. His name was George Leland Osborn - and the AAHE was his Parker that he ordered from Parker (the picture Jim used is my picture I took of the AAHE however, not from DGJ). What is written at the bottom of the picture is:
State Championship
July 13th 1918
- Score 100 Straight -
