And you thought tomorrow would never come. Here is the National Game card of Hal Chase (wearing white uniform). Hal was traded from the New York Yankees to the Chicago White Sox on June 1st, 1913. Although both cards have a patent date of 1913, since the National Game issue pictures him as a Yankee, and the Tom Barker wearing a White Sox uniform, the National Game set was undoubtedly issued before the Tom Barker set.

I personally like the look (black uniform provides great contrast, great pose) of his Tom Barker card better, but both are pretty cool.

I am showing the Tom Barker version again not only as a reminder, but also to benefit mankind as well.

Not a new pickup, but one of my favorites. PSA 2, nicer than my fuzzy scans show.

Haven't checked the rest of the thread to see if someone else responded to your comment, Mike, but here's the first half ...

(and now, I see that one was already posted ... )

Here's my Douglas Fairbanks strip (and that Vance guy). Siskel and Ebert give this one a 4/5.

Day 2... I love the colors and the detail on this card.

At the risk of opening up a can of worms as to whether this is actually a "card" in the strictest sense of the definition...CDV of Cal McVey.

Thanks, a unique card indeed.

Like next day pizza, day 2's are awesome.

George C. Miller card of Wally "He Shall be Redeemed" Berger.

(Because he had the bottom 30% chopped off when a kid back in the 1930's sent the card to the company for a prize redemption)

The Serious Melvin
 

Near perfect other then the random mark/ new beauty mark on his face.

One of the many Wagner cards that is rarer than his T206 and 1/100th (or less) of the price. I think at least one other one (the JKA) was already posted in this thread. NOT a comment on pricing in general, I get that it's all supply and demand and that the T206 Wagner is the most famous and coveted card in the hobby.

Also, as I am typing this it occurred to me that while a T5 Wagner is absolutely rarer than a T206 Wagner, the T206 is relatively rarer. Meaning T5s, JKAs, etc. are scarce in general and a Wagner is just as scarce as any of the others. But compared to the millions(?) of T206s in existence, the T206 Wagner is a tiny percentage. For whatever that's worth.

Here's my card for the day.

Love this "gray eagle"

I also think because it's a tobacco card, it's worth even more given the history of the Wags!

It's always fun to see cards that were well loved. You can tell some kid back in the day really enjoyed this card (and likely many others) enough to spend a lot of time looking up stats. The history of the individual cards is so fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

Many don't know that World Heavy Weight Champion John Sullivan played some semi-pro baseball before moving on to a boxing career.
I've owned many of his cards and kept just this one issue that I can't manage to part with....

i traded for this at the 1991 Anaheim National. Had it slabbed years later. "Buck" certainly took his cuts, didn't he?

If that's the ball down by his right foot, he missed it by a mile.

Jimmie on the on deck circle?
 

All about that launch angle.

They put the wrong brother in the hall of fame. So, for the Rick Ferrell card in my hall of fame collection, I decided to give Wes his due.

Molenick- that's a type 2, 15 card set and very rare.
DJ- great backstamp
Richard, that's one of the nicest Sport Kings I've ever seen, usually they're pretty beat up.
Great cards guys, thanks for posting.

A Kawika sighting!!!!! :)

GREAT card.

Casey2296, the odd thing about Type 2 is that there is no Texas Tommy indication anywhere on the card of (the back is blank). But the lettering used for the player name and team designation is the same as Type 1, so I guess someone made the connection. I also think the poses may be the same, but I have not seen enough cards to verify that this is always the case. Based on your posting and Old Cardboard https://oldcardboard.com/e/e2/e224/e...?cardsetID=768 the Gregg pose is the same.

I have a pet theory Ive been knocking around about that, I may put my thoughts together and make a post.
