Discussion and questions on e105's

[RCMcKenzie]

From 1997-2001 I assembled 22 different examples.

To answer your question about Wagner and Bender...It's Wagner bat and throw and Bender white hat, striped hat.

I had a raw O'Hara that was a conservative vg/e, so that is not the lone PSA example that is graded 1.

I had a raw McLean that was fair, so that could possibly be the now graded example of PSA 1, or maybe not.

On the crease... My belief is that one employee had the habit of creasing the cards before placing them in the gum package. The other four or five employees did not fold them. My anecdotal look at the set showed me that about 1 in 4 or 5 was creased.

The set could be completed because all 50 are known to exist, but you would need a lot of co-operation between fellow collectors.

SGC shows 3 versions for each player with the above 2 versions mentioned for each player...what is the 3rd version of the Wagner and Bender?

[RCMcKenzie]

In each case, SGC did not differentiate between the two variations. In other words the flip does not indicate either variation, so it creates a third flip variation, but not an actual card variation.

Nice Hartsel example, Jim. I may have to start collecting this set again. Should I start with the Mathewson on BST?

Rob is right on Bender and Wagner. As far as I know there are only 2 each
