No other card collector in the entire world would be as excited as I am to have picked up this rough-condition 1925 W504 Universal Toy & Novelty Co. card for my master collection of Sam Rice cards. As best as I can recall, I've only ever seen one other example of this card, a very nice example that resides in the collection of a Board member who won't part with it (hi BVH).

I got this card in a small lot of rough W504s and even-rougher W515-1s in an eBay auction from a seller who is not knowledgeable regarding vintage baseball cards. I say this because he did not reference the ACC designations, the result being that his listing did not match any of my saved eBay searches. Very fortunately for me, Board member and good friend Bryan L. happened to spot the eBay listing and alert me to it - thanks again, Bryan!

Congrats Val on picking up a toughie. You can now update your tagline as follows...

Seeking very scarce/rare cards for my Sam Rice master collection, e.g., E210 York Caramel Type 2, 1931 W502, W504 (DON'T NEED IT ANYMORE, GOT ONE, PRETEND YOU CAN'T SEE W504 ON THIS WANTLIST), W572 sepia, W573, W575-1 both versions, 1922 Haffner's Bread, 1922 Keating Candy, 1922 Witmor Candy Type 2 (vertical back), 1926 Sports Co. of Am. with ad back, etc.

Thanks Phil, Sonny & Brian the comedian for your kind words.

Brian, I do truly enjoy your very frequent humor. I did revise my tagline, but not quite as you suggested.

Don't encourage me. It's in my best interest to play the straight man every once in awhile.
