Special Notes: This is a misprint. There is a a double stamp of Jimmy Scala on the top of the Frisbee. The black Jimmies are the most highly prized of the translucent tournament series. They are extremely rare and were made officially at only one tournament. The tournament was the Western National Golf Championship in April '76. In order of availability, the red Jimmies were distributed at only two events. The two events were the Big Apple Jam in June and at Rochester in August. Green Jimmies and yellow Jimmies were both distributed at three events. The green ones appeared at Florence, Chicago and Boulder. The yellow ones sailed at Chicago and Rochester. Blue Jimmies were distributed most freely in range. They were to be found at six different events throughout the season. The tournaments were: Los Angeles in April, Sonoma in May, Octad, Florence, Boulder, and Boston in July. This double stamped black Jimmy is extremely rare. Disc courtesy of Charlie Burke.
