Keupper Cut
Has anyone seen a Keupper cut this way? Does this lessen the value? It's not trimmed, which is fairly obvious.

I've not seen a Keupper Old Mill red border card cut that way. I agree, it isn't trimmed, it is mis-cut. Otherwise it is in nice shape. And I do think that cut would lessen the value, especially if someone wanted the card slabbed.
Henry Keupper was 12-16 for the Nashville Vols in 1910, pitching for manager Bill Bernhard (who's in T206). Other T206 team-mates would have been Harry Bay and Hub Perdue. Keupper was in the minors, except for his single season with the St. Louis Terriers of the Federal League in 1914, winning 8 and losing 20 for a last place team. That's a nice card, I like it, even if the cut was off. |

And here's what the card looks like, correctly...
Have you compared that T210 with others? One problem is that it is mis-cut. But it might have been cut a bit short on top of that, too. Last edited by FrankWakefield; 08-01-2010 at 01:43 PM. |

I agree with Frank, I think it will decrease the value somewhat based on the miscut, but who knows? I've seen T206 cards on ebay that collectors have gone crazy over because of a miscut which shows a name over the image and no name underneath. When I started collecting I always quickly got rid of any cards like that because they were, simply, miscut and I felt worth less and had little eye appeal, but a lot of collectors are in love with miscuts.
That said, the T210 Keupper is a very tough card, hard to find, and this one has very nice eye appeal despite the miscut. |

Interestingly, Keupper is one of two Nashville T210's I recently picked up. I agree it does detract a bit not having his name at bottom BUT I can see that the player printed above him was with Montgomery, can you tell the last name there, it is tough for me to see. Always kinda cool seeing the potential layout of the sheet they were printed on.
While we are here, anyone know which "Anderson" was his teammate in 1910, no record of an Anderson having made the team and playing with Nashville in 1910. -Rhett

Rhett, you have some great cards...
I don't see an Anderson in the Southern League for 1910. I think that's Wingo Anderson. He was with the Cincinnati Reds for 7 games in 1910. First appearing April 16, and his last appearance June 1. In 1911 he pitches for Nashville (he's a southpaw, and unless that image was flopped that guy's a righty) going 10-8 in 19 games. Do you reckon that Wingo Anderson got hurt on June 1, or shortly thereafter, and eventually Cincy transferred him to Nashville in 1910... he's assigned down there and makes it onto a card, even though he never got into a game?? This is a link to Wingo's last major league game... he struck out the first batter he faced, then gave up a walk, a single, an walk, then walked in a run. Clarke Griffith had seen enough and pulled his pitcher, before they fell further behind to the Giants' pitcher, Christy Mathewson. http://query.nytimes.com/mem/archive...609C946196D6CF It would be interesting to find a 1910 Reds team photo to see if Anderson is in it, and how that compares to your Old Mill red border card.
