I figured tormenting Ben was a good way to end the for thread since it had gotten quite long.



Name the player and the set

Keep at er man, they'll come around eventually. Ahem. Back to the topic- this is is a wild stab in the dark, but is the card by any chance a Willard's Chocolate Duffy?

Not sure of the issue, but my vote would be Carl Hubbell or Mel Ott.

Hubbell is the correct player, now we just need the set.

If I went for the exact issue you guys would be guessing for a long time, and the photo has been used in a number of sets. Scott pretty much right on, it's a Candian version of the Goudey Wide Pen.

scott, you are up.

Can anyone post a scan of the Willards Chocolate Duffy? I ask because it's a very unique looking pose of an aging Duffy reading this GIGANTIC book.

Ebay pulls through with the following image. Hey it is from the dreaded Alan Hager, and he doesn't even mention that it has had all of its borders trimmed off, but it least it is Duffy reading that big ol' book.

Courtesy of ah-collectibles on ebay, a Willards Chocolate Duffy "reading book" pose. OK so maybe Hugh didn't comb his hair back with quite as much vigour as Hubbell. I wonder what he is reading.

Pretty simple...different shades of lavender.









I had a Goudey too, but the file doesn't work--you can guess that one too, from memory.

Perhaps this is a T206 of Dougherty?

My memory is not too good...perhaps the 1933 Goudey of Paul Richards?

Because I am mean-spirited, I offer another potentially tough one to figure out. Good luck!

I think there's only one with a lavendere background--it's not the Richards.

E cards with lavender backgrounds? How about the e90-1 Jackson, for starters?

Julie, I actually knew the Gehringer answer, just missed the question. I happen to have both cards, but the background of my Dougherty I believe is missing a color, because I would call it grey. The Gehringer Goudey has always been one of my favorite cards--I nominated it last time for the HOF, but forgot to this time around.



I desperately need a color lesson (evidently my Crayola box was not quite as large as others). Is the Gehringer considered lavender? And would a normal Dougherty also be considered lavender--maybe someone can post a picture of a typical Dougherty card.

The Gehringer is obviously purple--it's just like yours! And the Dougherty is lavender. The Baker is also purple, and the E90-1 is also purple. Sorry for making everything so mysterious!

My Dougherty is just like yours, I think--so I think your color is O.K. I really love that card!

in both posted Goudey cards (the same card).

Lavender is purple diluted, with more blue and less red.

Why don't you ask an artist--Ben?

It's not lavender, it's light purple. Next thing you know, we'll be calling it lilac :-p

Why do women (nothing personal Julie, my x-wife had all sorts of insane names for colors) have to make colors so difficult? :-p Look on an artists color wheel, no lavender, lilac, watermelon, burnt umber, etc to be found.

Hi Ben
Your colorful post is killing my eyes, you may have to be banned from posting pictures, unless they are cards. I agree with Jay. How many kinds of purple do we need? Are we talking vintage cards or interior decorating? Post nice pictures Brian

Overlooking the explicit chauvanism of Jay's post, I was merely addressing his mistaken point that lavender doesn't have a place on an artist's colour wheel. Well, in fact it does- if you refer to the wheel I posted (Brian, cover your eyes), lavender can be found on the outer edges of segment 18.

Since we all see the same card--what the hell are we fighting about?

It was actually a man who pointed the Dougherty out to me, but I won't say his name, for fear that he would be branded forever as effeminate!

Dont feel bad about using your Nadja Oakes to pick up chicks...

My wife attracted me with her "vintage" 1977 Charlies Angels Farrah Faucet cards...

Wait a minute, those were in my collection too...

Never mind
