Dizzy Dean and his brother Paul (Daffy) were the pitching core of the 1934 "Gas House Gang" St. Louis Cardinals - one of the most famous teams in baseball history. Before the 1934 season Dizzy said, “It ain't braggin’ if you can do it... Me and Paul'll win 45 games this year.” Dizzy won 30 and Paul 19 on their way to a World's Championship. The depiction of pre-war baseball’s most popular and charismatic siblings along with the brilliant graphics and its grand dimensions combine to make this one of the most appealing baseball advertising displays ever created. A genre defining artifact that exceeds every standard by which such objects are measured.
