I've never heard of a large vintage newspaper suppliment made out of cardboard. If the item is real, I would be surprised if it was distributed inside the newspaper as he describes ... His description is a bit mangled, as describes the item alternately as a premium and as a suppliment. It would have to be one or the other, not both, with a suppliment being distributed inside the newspaper. And nearly all to all large sized suppliments were on paper.

Cool piece, but it's against forum rules to post links to your own ebay auctions on the main board. There's a place for that in the Buy/Sell/Trade forum.

The auction description contains specific information about the issue (15 known, 1913, distributed inside newspaper). If I were a potential bidder, I would want to know source for the information. If this information came from a Mastro or Lew Lipset catalog, Standard Catalog or reputable web site, that would be a good source.

It's real from the looks of it. Would need to see it in person but I have one on my website and am positive it is real.....I do think they were a supplement. Not sure how they were distributed.....regards

This IS listed in the Standard Catalog. It's a 1913 Philadelphia Evening Times Supplement. Another one sold on ebay last night that I had my eye on.

Josh, if you have the 2006 Standard Catalog it's on page 284.

Almost every scenario has been played out on this board concerning the rules. There is no rule against outing a current auction. We have had threads about this before. It's not good etiquette and IS against the rules when it's your own auction. I let this one go as there was some good info in it. Unless you are the seller it's usually very "unwise" to out an ongoing auction.....regards

These are real and featured mostly A's and Giants. I have several that I won in a Political Gallery auction in the mid-90's. If I recall they had 20-25 different ones at that time. I have never seen the Cobb before.

Bryan - dont sweat it too much - there were a lot of people eyeing that auction. However, I agree that it was not appropriate for the seller to plug his own auction on the main board - this thread could have just as easily been placed in the B/S/T "on ebay" catagory or posted after the auction was completed.

That I should know better by now to assume that if something catches my eye on ebay then will catch almost everyone's eye on this board. I wish you guys would start collecting something else

Funny thing is that the seller made about $1000 on this item. He bought it recently from Hyee Auctions:

I picked up a few of these in the late 90's from a Political Gallery auction. I looked in their catalog and they had about 20 of them. They were all A's and Giants. No Cobbie.

The appearance of the card on this board had nothing to do with the difference in price. I was the underbidder this time, sniping at the last minute, as is my habit. Unfortunately, the last time the card was sold, I missed the closing of the auction by mere minutes. Had I been successful then, it would never have reappeared. (And, if a second one had reappeared, it actually would have sold for less without my underbid.)

I finally located the auction catalog from which I purchased my PET Supplements. Slater's Americana in their Auction #5 (3/15/99) sold the following PET Supplements:

I stand corrected, I obviously missed that one. I didn't remember the auction I referenced having a Cobb as well but it did. These may be out there but I don't see them very often. Tough to survive in as good a shape as that Cobb looked like it was in.

I can almost bet that the auction will go beyond my little budget. I hate to be the board a##hole on this one, but shouldn't this thread have been delted and then allowed to go forward after the auction closed?
