Let's See Your Jefferson Burdick Stamped Cards

I looked for a thread on these and didn't see one dedicated to it, so I thought I would start one. Here are my two.

Here's a T201. I've shown this one a few times in other threads over the years. Maybe those threads did not have "Burdick stamp" in the title...

Very cool. What degree of a premium does a Burdick stamp add to the price of a card?

Sport and Non-sport examples.

my lone example - gift from my friend "Buchner". Thanks Terry!!

to answer the question

I'd say it's likely in most cases to LOWER the card's value as it defaces the verso. That said - as you can see there are collectors that appreciate the historical hobby significance the stamping brings.

T36 -- Mulford (only have him, and his T227, because of the Savannah races ;))

Not stamped, not vintage, and not mine. Just thought that, given this thread, it might be appropriate. Maybe it does detract in value, but if I had a card with his backstamp, or any backstamp on a vintage card, frankly, I would treasure it! Cool as can be!

Does a December 25th, 1955 stamp count?

He must have hid from cameras.

I say it most definitely counts!

My E80 Jack Johnson

i don't think there is a ready conclusion to be drawn as to market value of a Burdick-owned card. People who find and identify them tend to prize them and not offer them for sale. I'd want a substantial multiple of the price for a standard E80 Johnson to sell this one.

Anyone know how many different stamp styles are known to exist?

The Jeff B and the letter B are the typical ones. There are also stamps showing a connection with the Met and I would be concerned that those cards were stolen.

I had a complete collection of E28's with JB's fancy purple stamp.

Adding an example of the Met collection stamp(s) as well.

This is the exact same card I came to add as it is a recent addition to my collection and was hoping for more information.

Photo A - This is the card in question.

Photo B - It contains the MET stamp at the lower and another new to me stamp stating it was a duplicate.

Photo C - The curious thing is that is looks as though another stamp has been poorly removed near top center.

First question is, does anyone have a guess as to what this top removed stamp is.
Secondly, was this removed from the collection properly? Was there a sale I do not know of during which the MET sold duplicates?
Third, and this is always a reasonable question; Is this really a Burdick or a craft project?

I am genuinely interested in what the deal is here. :) This was also a fairly low budget purchase so if it was removed improperly the MET can most certainly have it back.
