  • Postcard sent out to would be purchasers of Stadium Stamps--the proceeds were used to help finance the construction of Stadium Bowl.
  • Printed on front: 400,000 of these Five Cent publicity stamps are being used to invite clever people to COME TO TACOMA WHERE LIFE IS WORTHWHILE Boost the Stadium! 400,000 of the above stamps will be sold by the Citizens Stadium Committee to raise funds to finish the High School Stadium. The stamps will be engraved and lithographed (not printed like the above sample), and will be issued about Feb. 25th in gummed and perforated sheets, advance orders for which are now being received for delivery from the first sheets received from the engraver. If every merchant in town will use from 500 to 1,000 stamps, and if every home in Tacoma will use a Stadium Stamp on each of the next 20 letters to the old-home folks, our beautiful Stadium will be quickly finished and 400,000 out-of-town people will be invited to COME TO TACOMA WHERE LIFE IS WORTH WHILE. Will you do your part by promptly mailing your order for Stadium Stamps on this post card?

  • The tiger was the mascot for the Tacoma baseball club, the Tacoma and Stadium High Schools and Montamara Festo, a citywide event held in Stadium Bowl in July. The tiger was also used by editorial cartoonist Edward Samuel "Tige" Reynolds, who while working for the Tacoma Ledger created a little tiger who appeared in his work for thirty years. This scan puts four postcards together to complete the whole tiger, and to promote the then current favored publicity motto.
