Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Leon, I bid on those as well...any idea what they are? I'm thinking personal snapshots that someone put facsimile autographs on the negative. I really have no clue though.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I agree with Mastro's assessment so far. To me they look like some kind of 1930's premium. regards

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>The numbers on the reverse lead me to believe they were snapshots. They could have been designed to be some sort of premium, and if they were this was likely not the finished product, but a "mock up" of what the premium was to be.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Just having the facsimile sigs on them makes them intriguing. The average "photomat" would not have done that to the negatives. Why it was done is the intriguing part. I'm going to side that these were part of a process to make some kind of premium that never came to fruition.

That doesn't make an item 'good' or 'no good'.<br /><br />It does, however mean.....<br /><br />..... it is a wonderful situation for a buyer.<br />..... it is a terrible situation for a seller.<br /><br /><br /><br />since there is a calendar - the mystery is solved.<br />Clearly these are goudys. I only wish they had an abundance of stars on the front / that would seal it for me. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>I have to say that they don't make me miss the SGC/JSA alliance much. Before I get too many more slabbed by PSA/DNA I sure do wish SGC would hurry up and get somebody good to come on board.

Posted By: <b>Ken W.</b><p>Amazing card, Phil!<br /><br />I have an autographed postcard of George Weiss which dates to the 1950's, but your's blows that away. Always impressed how people can even figure out who the men in suits are in those old photos. Great job, as usual!<br /><br />Ken<br /><br />P.S. I see that you also were able to pick-up the Hopkins Bros. Lady Baseball PC with J.L. Wilkinson. Got one myself a few weeks ago from Dan Bretta, who did the research. Fun schtuff!

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Thanks, Ken.<br /><br />Dan's research enabled us to make a nice addition to our HOF collections although it took a postcard that routinely sold for under $100.00 and made it a $500.00 item. At least it fills a previously impossible hole in the collection.<br /><br />Thanks again, Dan!!!

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>14" x 3.25" tri-fold postcard of the 1909 Pittsburgh Pirates.<br /><br />(I made the scan on the small side - to hopefully help keep the width of this thread manageable. Unfortunately - its harder to appreciate the look of the players with the small scan.)<br /><br /><img src="http://www.internetville.com/023008reading/1909Pittsburgh.jpg"><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />And I just had to buy this mystery Matty piece. If anyone wants to help me try to figure out what it might be - that would be great. It measures 3.5" x 5.5", is on slightly thinner than postcard paper stock (like a light postcard - heavier than a text weight paper).... It appears hand-cut or trimmed, and it has the stamp on the back "New England Gum Co. Cambridge, Mass."<br /><br /><img src="http://www.internetville.com/023008reading/eMattyFront.jpg"><br /><img src="http://www.internetville.com/023008reading/eMattyBack.jpg">
