FYI, I noticed 100+ of these listed in lots of 2 to 5 over at Kevin Savage being auctioned today and remembered this thread.

Thanks Chad. So it was you're post that drove the bids up at that auction.

It was actually nice to see so many lots listed. That was actually the 3rd auction where they had a sizable number of Diamond MBs recently. I managed to pick up a couple of the lots but some of the prices went higher than I thought was fair value.

I picked up my first matchbook - a Dizzy Dean - at the Strongsville show a couple weeks ago. Hard to beat the price compared to Dean's other cards, and the image matches some of his most popular cards (like Honus Wagner's Colgan's Chips portrait image). As my Hall of Fame project has evolved, I've really honed in on the idea of showcasing just how popular baseball was, and how it was marketed using just about anything and everything under the sun. Very happy I dipped my toes in the matchbook water. May end up adding one or two more. Great thread, too.

I'm sure there will be more as well. They picked up a huge (almost complete?) collection of these with (almost all?) of the text, text color, and border color variations.
