Unknown cards
I just got back some cards from SGC and 2 card labels don't match anything I can find in Beckett. Can anyone help?
This is listed as "1928 York Caramel E210 #59 Lloyd Waner" (I found this set listed but #59 isn't Waner) http://mywebpages.comcast.net/paleymets/1928yc59.jpg This card is listed as "1937 Goudey Wide Pen R314 Bobby Doerr" (should this be 1936?) http://mywebpages.comcast.net/paleymets/1937gwp1.jpg Thanks for your help Dan |

I'm sure that someone will chime in... I believe that there are four different variations of the Wide Pens... Look for the "Old Cardboard" link near the top of the net54 page... "Old Cardboard" is a great resource for vintage baseball cards...
On a side note, it appears that Doerr's last name is spelled incorrectly on the card itself... It appears to be spelled "Doeer"... I wonder if they ever corrected that error?

I believe that the Doerr "Wide Pen" is a Type 4 which is a 1937 issue according to the SCD Standard Catalog. Type 3s are listed as a 1936 issue and Doerr is not in that set. The SCD also lists Lloyd Waner as #59 in the Type 2 1927 York Caramel set. You may have been looking at the 1927 Type 1 set in which #59 is Bob Shawkey. Hope that helps.

What's on the back of the Waner card?
His 1928 Yuengling's Ice Cream card is #59, could it be that? They have "SAVE THESE PICTURES" across the top of the landscaped back. I think Yuengling cards are the same size as the York Caramels. Both are black and white cards. A fella just shouldn't get carried away with the idea that 3pg folks get 'em all correct. And, consider getting a Standard Catalog. Even if you get one every other year, or so. Also, Mr. Lipset's Encyclopedia would be a big help to you. Last edited by FrankWakefield; 08-17-2010 at 05:35 PM. |

It's Paul on a York Type 2 that is misidentified on the card as L. Waner; similar mug shot is on his PC Back Exhibit. It isn't a Yeungling; they are rescreens of the York artwork and have a dirty looking grayish box around the name instead of being on a clean background.
