Thanks Leon. While there's not some of the monster cards we've had in past auctions the variety is by far our best.While there's a selection of T206's, T205's, Goudey's and Play Ball Cards, there are some amazing esoteric, unusual and even rare items to check out.
Incredible 3' Wide Panoramic Postcard of Opening Season at League Park in Cleveland
Amazing colorized 1910 Post Card from the initial season of what appears to be game action at Cleveland's League Park. Most likely Nap Lajoie is pictured somewhere. Cy Young is also a possibility. If it is indeed opening day then they are playing Ty Cobb's Detroit Tigers. A piece of the game's history that just doesn't pop up very often.
Numerous other unique items such as this complete newspaper page with
Rinkeydink Stamp Walter Johnson in the upper right corner!
While the stamps pop up periodically (PSA has graded a total of 40 from the set) this is the only full page we can find. A chance to own a possibly unique item!
We've had some amazing
Rose Co. Postcards recently, and while there's only one in this auction, what a one!
There are a decent number of Greenfield's Chocolates backs, which are indeed rarer than the plain postcard backs. Rarer still are the Jacob Shirk "Calling Card" backs. They appear to be used by sales representatives of the Jacob Shirk company.
Dozens of early 20th century player autographs including a number of
T206 players like this
George Gibson. All certified by CAS.
Amazing Sporting Life Card Envelope Series 1.
Again a tough enough item in general, but unlike all other Series 1 envelopes we could find (a small number to begin with) this is the only example we found that has the players' first and last names.
Some cool
pennants including this
1913 UNC Cravats Tris Speaker
And a nice selection of the tough
1914 Piedmont Art Stamps including a couple HOF'ers like this Bobby Wallace.
