Pre war: 1911 Colgan's Red Border photo 1911colgansred.jpg

I've never seen another one, but I admit I haven't looked that hard.

Post War:  photo miley_zpsa52c3a15.jpg

Another "never seen another one" cards, and I actually have looked very hard for another one of these.

Can't get rarer than this--only card produced, may be "prototype" and never distributed.

Being an U of Akron grad the Canton team has a little more meaning!!

Great looking stuff so far everyone. I hope to add another rare card, Spud Johnson, this year if I can find one.
