Default Colgan's mint chips - E270 (Tin Tops)

Posted By: Julie Vognar

Something about Communists? I sure as hell don't know!

I never saw a RED Colgan's TIN in my life. Pink and green
they all are (beginning to sound like Yoda). "Stars of the diamond" are the most common, Red Borders next (but very hard to find with a nice red border all the way around that hasn't bled all over the card or some other fool thing, Tin Tops hardest.

I have 129 total, with all three kinds.

In one of the back issues of VCBC, a very early one (not the out-of-print numberr7), Fritsch has written an article--yikes! maybe it was Lipset!--saying literally a dozen or more listed Stars of the Diamond--mostly HOF, don't exist. Boy, it felt good to draw a line through those HOFers I never saW!
