Well, he's back from SGC. Looks great but must say I was surprised to see so much daylight between the gasket and the card:

At least I think so. All the other Martins I've seen have the blank background. Sometimes ebay still comes through...

Time for an update on the Worches
Hi all,
Still obsessed with the Worches over here. I continue to compile new variations to the checklist, which is ever-expanding. If you have acquired any recently that you think might be uncataloged, let me know- I am also trying to compile scans of all the cards. I need scans of all these MLB players. Please let me know if you can supply any, or even just confirm their existence.

Hi "Mike,"
I know, I wondered whether the Burleigh Grimes might be a phantom thread from the Berley in the AA set - especially since no one has actually produced a Burleigh for inspection. But Burleigh was still pitching in 33, so we can't rule it out. PMs and emails sent your way needing replies :) |
Calling Mikegarcia
Hi Ben,
Did you see my note of Friday? I would love to get a pic of your Minneapolis poster for the checklisting effort. I think you have only sent the St Paul one previously. Please email me at apspr@msn.com |

Here is a card that came in a lot of Burke postcards. It looks like a Worch to me. It wasn't shown in the lot on Ebay, so it was a bit of a surprise to receive it.

Nice, Jeff
That’s definitely a Worch!
