I found a very rare P47 while there though see what you think

Country: | There's something odd about that picture but I can't quite put my finger on it.
And in defence of Lee, you all do look alike. South Park told me so.

December 1-2, 1962 at Toronto
Game halted by fog. Final 9:29 played on December 2.
It is also the provincial capital and all politicians are in a perpetual fog.  |
