A Dragon Card even I don't have! At the request of a customer who specialized in trains on stamps, I affixed 9 "combination" stamps (including a plate block of the B&O stamp) that he supplied. It's the only one like it in existence (if it is still in existence). I didn't even assign a number to it until listing it on my website. Call it "Dgn 88d."
