    Antique Auto Polo Collectible
    “The Auto Polo Pencil Pad”
    This may be the only Auto Polo collectible for sale on eBay.
    These items are very rare.
    Pad is old, aged, and fragile.
    Measures 10” by 7.75”.
    If there ever was a back cover it is gone, may have never been one.
    Full of old yellowed fragile paper.
    I don’t handle it any more than I have to.
    Needs to be framed and put in a collection.
    Very rare item for the automobile collector.
    Automobile polo or Auto polo was a motorsport invented in the United States with rules and equipment similar to equestrian polo but using automobiles instead of horses. The sport was popular at fairs, exhibitions and sports venues across the United States and several areas in Europe from 1911 until the late 1920s; but it was dangerous and carried the risk of injury and death to the participants and spectators, and expensive damage to vehicles.
    I have an 8x40 shipping container and 3 storage units full of junk from the last 40 years that I am trying to get rid of. I will eBay as much as possible in-between my search for a job (out of work).
    The stuff I’m selling is used and has been in my storage for sometimes up to 40 plus years and will have dust, grease, dirt, and dirt dauber nests.
    Thank you for taking your time to look.
    Shipping and Returns Information:
    Disclaimer: I ship within 3 business days of cleared payment, and that was specified when this ad was created as my ‘handling time’ “Delivery in 2 Days”, IF shown on the ad in red, is generated by eBay shipping software that is way-overly optimistic, not me. Thank you for your understanding.
    Postage charged is to cover actual postage, handling, packing materials, time, car & gas, and eBay postage fees. Returns, only if offered, given minus 20% handling and buyer pays shipping both ways.
    Important, Shipments Outside the United States of America:
    For international shipments the buyer must be aware of duty costs and is responsible for all duty costs.
    Know your importation rules / taxes before purchasing.
    Also, if an international bidder, please double-check shipping cost, because it will not be discounted. Priority-mail cost will be charged for first-class international packages in some cases to cover handling and above.
    I do not offer international postage tracking. Since USPS cannot track some international packages, the Buyer will bear full responsibility for local post-office delivery of the package once it ships and agrees not to hold the Seller responsible for non-delivered packages. No refund of purchase price or postage will be given for an international package that is lost or not delivered.
    Again, thank you for your understanding.
