1904 Allegheny Game Cards

[pgellis]

I was searching the site last evening regarding all the Luther "Dummy" Taylor issues that are known and I came across a couple of threads regarding the 1904 Allegheny Game Cards where there is a Dummy Taylor card from that set.

After reading several threads from the site's archives I found it rather fascinating about this set. There is only 1 known set out there and thus, only 1 copy known for the 112 different cards that make up the set. Truly a very rare issue obviously.

So, let's see your Allegheny Game Cards if you have any. I would also be quite interesting in hearing how you acquired your card/cards? Was it on eBay, at the National, major auction house, or some other interesting find? How hard are they to find?

Also, if anyone on here has the Dummy Taylor card or know who does, please PM with contact info if they want to be known, I would love to ask them a few questions about the card offline.

Thanks,
Phil

As I remember it there was the one full set and it got sold once or twice. I think TIK Sr. ended up with it (or most of it) and sold singles for quite a while. That is where I got this one. .....I think B and L sold the Matty for 9k-10k some time back.....neat type cards...

How sweet would it be to come across a full deck of those laying around somewhere ?

Leon, is there anything you don't have?

Yes . I still need a D351 and D355....then, except for a few real easy ones I can get anytime, I will be complete on my ACC 20th century, pre-1950 type set. I still need a bunch of color variations and backs.....it is truly never ending, which makes it fun too.

BTW, being quite focused, and staying that way, has helped a lot!!

Surely there are more than a few things Leon doesn't have. He may need to pony up more though than he would for the D351 or D355
