Default Champ Osteen Cards?
Does anyone know if any prewar cards were issued for James Champlin "Champ" Osteen?

Guessing that the T210-8 OSTEEN is James Champlin "Champ" Osteen.

Based on baseball-reference.com he played for Montgomery during the 1910 season.

Can anyone confirm this?


Thanks,

He also has one of the 1/1 T206 Proofs



But yes, the only obtainable card you'll find of Osteen is the T210-8

Would someone post a scan of T210-8 Osteen? I've looked all over and can't seem to find one.
Thanks.

While I applaud the ATC's foresight of recognizing over 100 years ago what the only resource on their cards would someday be, I still think it looks better like this.

(Neither card below is mine, but the scans are posted with permission from their owner.)

John,

I noticed your BST post and how long you've been looking for the Osteen.

I figured I'd bump this thread with a better scan of the card you are looking for.

Also attached here is the Thomas portrait that Jerome hasn't seen.

Good luck in your search,
Steve
