Why are these fishing papers signed by mlb players

[jtw1313]

I'm I missing something I know one is Jarrod Washburn number 56 can't figure out the other one number 6

Place mats from a restaurant. The guy who waited on them, had them sign them as a souvenir for him.

 

[Keith Jackson]

That was going to be my guess. Or they were making a public appearance at a sporting goods store.

Any guess on who number 6 is

 

[Charlie P. (NY)]

#6 is almost certainly Matt Walbeck. They both played for the Anaheim Angels with those numbers in 1998 - 2000.

Copy righted in 1976. That is what the "C" in the circle means. The person that drew the pic had it copyrighted so that no one else could use the image without blah blah blah....

Does not mean the material was printed in 1976.

Jarred Washburn would have been two years old in 1976.

Must be the restaurant got a GOOD deal and stocked up on place mats.
