Regular readers have already gotten to know our friend Jay Hunter, who is one of our "go-to" sources on obscure throwing cards. Well, right after the release of "Karl or Carl," his first guest post, Jay kindly sent me this fascinating contribution, featuring a beautiful and unusual throwing card. - Judge Brown
I acquired this throw-out card several years ago at a magic collectors’ convention. I saw the back of the card in an album of memorabilia and got very excited. I thought it was a throw-out card for Howard Thurston who used the same Miller Tires back and similar front design, early in his career on one of his throw-out cards. Imagine my surprise when I flipped it over and saw a magician named McEvoy!
