Minor League HOFers

[sportscomicfantasy]

Thank you, everyone, for the help, I welcome any other cards that someone see's is missing from those listed by others already.

But my other big question from those of you in the know is, how likely are any of these old minor league cards to be forged or faked. I am just wondering if I would be safe going after raw cards that are not graded or should stay with only graded cards of the pre-war cards???

Depends on your definition of "old". I haven't seen much in the way of Zeenuts forgeries but I don't know that I would plunk down four figures for a raw DeMaggio on eBay from an unknown seller (especially if he says "God bless" or mentions charity in the listing). The ML card I'd most like to own is the 1977 Chong Modesto Henderson, which has been faked.

Clark Griffith's Old Judge is a minor league issue. He's with Milwaukee still.
