FS: Impossibly Rare 1939 Father & Son Shoes 4 Available

[btcarfagno]

I just did win these at auction, so please allow a fair amount of time for delivery. Very excited about having them available for the collectors on this board who truly appreciate a rarity such as these.

The four cards offered will not grade well technically due to some glue residue and extra paper on the backs of each one. The Passeau also has some light soiling and the Passeau has a small crease. The other three appear to be Ex or better otherwise (the back issues notwithstanding).

This is one of the rarest pre-war issues extant. Type collectors can search for years to find just one of these. I am making four available at the same time, three of which present from the front as EX+.

Honestly a once in a lifetime opportunity.



















I am asking $300 each for the Arnovich, May and Davis cards and $240 on the Passeau. These prices include shipping.

One way to know just how rare these are is that the experts are not even certain exactly how many are in the small set. There are 17 known subjects, but some believe the number in the set could be 20.

Also, the combined pop report (really just SGC as PSA has not entombed a single example) shows a total of just 9 examples having ever been graded for the entire set. There are no examples graded of any of these four cards.

edit: My bad. There is a Spud Davis that was graded by SGC.

OK, this was 4 years ago, so I'm guessing these are gone.

But by any chance, is the Passeau still available?
