Take another look at the summer Leland Auction catalog with me. Featured below are a handful of really interesting (at least to me) Dodger memorabilia items.
I just can't get enough of the artwork of Willard Mullin. As you may know, he popularized the Dodger "Bum" mascot though his cartoons in local newspapers and magazines in the 40's and 50's. Featured above is an original Mullin sketch of the "Bum", and he's smoking a big stogie with the phrase "Champs" emitting from it. Check out the auction here. It originally comes from the Sal Larocca collection.
