Rookie card or not, I don't like the "Meredith at work" card. I prefer his 1902 issues instead. As for his best-looking card, I would have to go with the 1910 Cope's Clips.
Nice cards, Al.

That Wills SGC 8 is STUNNING! I have two copies, but they're both around VG.
Do you consider 1902 Wills (or Clarke's) to be the first football card set? I believe there are a few rugby cards in there, but they describe it as a "football" series unlike the other multi-sport sets from around that time. Also, I see that PSA dates the Ogden's cards as 1902, so the Meredith "at work" may not precede the others. |

Ogden's cards
Quote:
The Cohen Weenen set from 1897 is good (which includes Cricket and Jockeys). The Guinea Gold set from 1897 is mostly or just footballers, I think. I see that the grading companies get a bit confused with the Ogden's and there are a ton of different sets. I try to use this site as much as possible to date and identify them. There are a bunch of sets that are just footballers and a bunch of "General Interest" ones. https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogsp...r-leading.html https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogsp...terest-95.html This is the particular set and they do believe that 1902 is the right date for this one: https://cartophilic-info-exch.blogsp...est-95-02.html However, you can see that www.rookiesoccercards.com believe that this set (which also includes Steve Bloomer) Here is an excerpt: "Ogden Tabs' General Interest Series C 1900. Often misdated as 1902, the 1900 dates is far more accurate due to the inclusion of John Goodall for Derby (Goodall left Derby in 1900)" https://www.rookiesoccercards.com/bl...steve-834.html Here is my favorite Circus Girl card (GO Smith). |
