1916 Altoona Trbune Eppa Rixey
Greetings all, I was just checking my cards and I found a 1916 Altoona Tribune Eppa Rixey in a stack. I checked the POP reports for PSA and SGC and don't see any graded. I was not aware that back is rare. Like finding $.
I just had to post since I am so thrilled at the find. I added the scans. Best to All, Richard  PS I just found a nice Standard Biscuit Rixey also. Wow! Last edited by timelord; 01-18-2014 at 11:43 AM. Reason: Just found a Standard Biscuit Rixey also. Wow!

Congrats. So where's the "show" part of show and tell? Front and back scans would be appreciated here.

IIRC, Old Cardboard lists the Altoona Tribune back as either one percent or less than one percent of the total population of M101-4/5s. Last edited by Bored5000; 01-18-2014 at 10:22 AM.

1916 Altoona Tribune Rixey
Hi and thanks for the replies. I will scan the card and post pics for all. I just added the scans of the card. Before anyone asks where did I get the card I have been collecting since the 80's and have bought cards at shows, dealers, etc. It could have been Larry Fritsch but not certain. The paper is almost white and not the darker color of some of the other backs.

Very nice Richard. I have now confirmed 41 different subjects with the Altoona Tribune back, including 12 HOFers. For those interested, this is the 9th confirmed ad back for Rixey in m101-4/5.
EDITED TO ADD: STANDARD BISCUIT MAKES 10
