Faster than a Speeding Bullet

My other walk-in find at the Chicago show came from Keith Lange, who stopped by just as the show was starting to wind down for the weekend.  Keith had with him a box of odds and ends, and when I found a Penman in there, I think I bored the poor guy to death with the tale of Penman, Starr, war profiteering and the tax evasion scandal that brought down Joseph Starr (see pages 151 and 152 in The Catalogue).

As I dug a little deeper into the box, this pops out . . .
