Does anyone have any information about these cards? Does anyone happen to have one to show me, so that I know what they look like? How hard are they to find? I was looking for the first card of Willie Keeler and found that this was the first card that he is pictured on. Is this correct? I'm just trying to gather some information on about how much I'm going to have to save up in order to pick this up - if it is even possible. |

that you would have one Hal How often do these come around, and what do they normally go for? I have a feeling it will be out of my price range - as most cabinets that I want are. |

I think I remember reading in an old issue of VBC that there are maybe 4 of these out there... |

I figured so. I guess this means I need to bring my head out of the clouds and start on something that does not require me to sell my kidney on the black market. I only have one cabinet in my collection and would like to add additional ones. I do not care much for the Turkey Red cards as I would rather have real pictures or something along those lines. Welp, back to drawing board I go. |

There are some cool cabinets for sale in Mastro ... but who knows where they will end up price-wise. |

There was probably a Keeler card produced as part of the 1894 Alpha Photo Engraving set, but none have ever been found. Keeler is on several team and individual Cabinet cards in the early 1890's, though none are regular issued "cards" in that they were not issued as part of a set for commercial use. Cabinet cards are essentially photo's that were glued to a cardboard backing. |

Probably a little more, now that vintage cards are REALLY HOT and the prices are skyrocketing. |

To help Brian out...Does anybody know how much kidneys go for on the black market? I think Brian is going to need a bull market in kidneys. |
