1940 Michigan Sportservice Detroit Tigers Collectors.....
 
Hello! Have heard many stories about paper shortage for WWII and how these were very limited....anyone have these? or ever seen a Hank Greenberg...actually bought a Hank from a Detroit dealer who had a reprint issue that was made for collectors to complete the set....see the same few examples on ebay.....anyone have more to the story? thanks, Michael.

Had Tommy Bridges, since sold.

I have a Tommy Bridges. I’m about 90% certain I got it from Leon about a decade ago. Not sure but I vaguely remember buying it off Luckeycards. Didn’t really know they were rare (relatively speaking). If I can dig it out tonight I’ll provide a scan.

I believe you did, Steven. I have had several over the years. 4 x 6 blank back

Here's my Averill, before I liberated it from its holder. The low grade is due to back damage. (I'm not sure why the scan is so small).
