This card is known as a "sound bromide" and was manufactured by the Showa Memory Sheet Corporation. If the card is played on a record player, you can actually hear a recording of Sadaharu Oh! The cards initially appeared in 1962. However, many cards were repackaged in 1963 by Nissho as part of the LP Note series of "sheets." The new packaging includes a cardboard foldout easel encased in paper and plastic "LP Note" packaging, including a notebook consisting of ruled tablet pages. When not in use on a turntable, the card can be stood up for viewing. If you remove the card from the easel, a list of batting leaders for the 1950-1962 seasons is revealed on the easel. While we have been pleased to offer the card with easel on two previous occasions, never before have we seen the LP ruled line notebook. Facsimile autograph.
