The Rose Company Cards

[stephenolson]

I am new to this site. I have 12 Rose Company cards picturing the Scranton Red Sox. If anyone has information about these cards or knows where I can locate any such information, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance. Stephen.

Interestingly, the Player Checklist has only 11 Scranton player cards. The one that I have that is missing from the Checklist is for a player whose last name is Zeimer.

Hey Stephen - great stuff!

FWIW, I counted 12 Scranton players in the checklist.

(8) Heinie Beckendorf Scranton Club
(12) ___ Bills Scranton Club
(54) ___ Eley Scranton
(68) ___ Graham Scranton Club
(70) ___ Groh Scranton
(72) ___ Halligan Scranton Club
(79) ___ Houser Scranton Club
(93) ___ Kellogg Scranton
(95) Malachi Kittredge (Kittridge) Scranton
(124) ___ Moran Scranton
(157) ___ Schultz Scranton Club
(172) ___ Steele Scranton Club

so your Zeimer should make 13!

Curious if you'd post a scan of #79 Houser - it should resemble Ben Houser who played for them in 1909, based solely on the back text of his T207.

Thanks!
