Thanks. We see a lot of discussions about what to collect and seeing all of these cards displayed like this is (hopefully) a very nice enticement.....and it's not an expensive set!! As with all of vintage, patience is key.

Set has really grown on me. I used to somewhat dislike them. Nice pickups!

I agree Leon, great set. I'm not much of a set collector anymore (currently only have about 5), but this is my first pre-war set. I've been taking it slow so it's taken a couple years to put together. I'm down to needing just the Gehrig.

WOWZA! What a beautiful set...

I've had this one for a while. I purchased it primarily because IMO it's the best looking Foxx card:

Leon- do the corners look okay to you?

They appear almost uniformly rounded.


My Grove has straight corners

These came from an ebayer that isn't a specific card type seller. I think these probably came from an original collection and the corners are rounded as they should be, not as they shouldn't be . I have looked at them quite closely.

Hopefully it's cool if this transitions to a "show your DeLongs" thread. I love the look of this set, though I only have a few cards to show for it.

So...my card with the straight borders is in question? I did not quite follow your logic there...could you elaborate?


Thanks,
Raymond

Your cards have less wear than mine. That is all. No reason for concern with any shown, that I can see.

I'm guessing most people either like them or they don't. I imagine the cartoonish look is what turns people off. I have always liked the set ever since I saw the old Dover reprints. I have gathered a few over the years. O'Doul is my favorite because it is a Dodger appearance, but always liked the Pepper Martin slide pose for looks the best.

I've always liked this set, although I wouldn't want to be a member of the battery on the Cochrane card

Default Foxx
I bought a raw, crease-free, Foxx from the BST about a week ago. It checked several boxes for me: my first DeLong, my first Foxx vintage card showing him in an A's uniform. I love it!
