1920 W519 - Cravath #18 Variation Confirmation

[glchen]

Here's my W519 Cravath run (technically, I guess I need the W521 also). Unfortunately, for my Type 2 copy, it's very unclear what the second letter is, but it seems to be more like an "A" then the "O."

Derek,

Great card. Many of us are interested but have little to add. Keep us posted on new developments!

Edited to add: i also thought the E121 Meadows discovery was amazing.

Gavvy had a successful post baseball career. He got into real estate in CA and became a judge in Laguna Beach, where he passed in the early '60's. Fared much better than a lot of his contemporaries. He has an interesting write up on Wikipedia. I believe he was the first major leaguer from the greater San Diego area, being a native of Escondido, CA.

My only Gabby is unnumbered but at least has a wet sheet transfer on back....

I like Gary's ambiguous "A/O" in Gavvy...

Nice Gary...I was aware of your E107 collection, but never knew you had such an extensive Cravath Strip Card collection. You've been holding out on us!!

So it looks like the "Gobby" is new info, but #18 was already known/confirmed. It's debatable whether yours shows Gabby vs Gobby. I think my example makes it obvious.

Thanks for chiming in everyone.

Thanks, Derek, but I think that's Gary P. w/ the incredible E107 collection. I've never owned one yet, but hope to one day. I think my T2 is a Gabby, so I think you have an "error" card. Maybe they corrected the spelling in later releases.
