My interest lies in the Type 2's. All 3 of the known Cafe Du Monde cards, all Pittsburgh players, are in the Type 2 set, but none of them are in the Type 1 or Type 3 sets. These players are Carey, Cooper, and Glazner.

It looks like some of the players, such as Bassler, appear in all 3 types, while other players only appear in one type.

This will be a fun thread to keep an eye on.

Hi Rick, just had the chance to respond to your post. The Carey and Glazner cards are only currently confirmed in the Type 1. the Cooper in Type 1 and Type 3 (I am updating that list right now...he got left off). All three are UNCONFIRMED in Type 2.

Since the Cafe Du Monde cards are all Pirates, it would be interesting to see if any pattern emerges. Currently for the Pirates all but Barnhart, Gooch, Grimm, Mokan and Traynor have been seen in Type 1, while only Bigbee, and Mokan have been seen in Type 2, and only Cooper, Maranville and Morrison have been seen in Type 3.

Here is another Cafe Du Monde that has surfaced. This is the first one that I know of that isn't a Pittsburgh player.

Thanks Rick for pointing out the Walter Johnson CDM (as some like to shorten it). Fun to see a non-Pirates card pop up.

Thank you for all the great insight and information about E120 vs W573 cards. I have two cards but not sure which category of W573s they fall into as I did not see them listed in type 1 or type 3

They appear to be W573 type 1 cards. The Type 1 I included in the thread was for Unconfirmed cards, and both of the cards you showed have already been confirmed.

I was underbidder on this card in Sterling's auction a few months ago...sterling listed it as an E120 but I assume it is a W573 instead but I don't know a lot about the set...I hope Brian doesn't mind me posting his recent for comparison...Jerry

I just picked this up on the B/S/T. It’s blank backed and handcut (or at least trimmed) and is on thin paper stock like the E120s. I assume it’s a W573 Type 2 and on your unconfirmed list.
