Broders, Dan Even and the Helmar Rabbit Hole

I am a fan of Helmar. They use very high quality printing techniques and have very good attention to detail.

See my Red with a beautiful Rolled Lace Glove peaking up. Very high quality.

I also like how this particular set is numbered /20. Kind of like a fine art series.
The only time a card being numbered I'll ever care about.

Beautiful card. It would not be difficult to discretely add a year to the back of the card to identify it as a modern creation, though when I think about it, the serial numbering kind of gives it away.

Had a quick look at the website, I have a feeling I'll be spending a lot of time on it....

I've been interested in these unlicensed cards for a while now, and pick them up when I come across them. Preferably in full sets, but if I'm going through a cheap cards box and they're in there I usually get them.

I always thought it was funny people claimed they were worthless because the people making them could always reprint them. So far I haven't heard of that happening with an unlicensed set, but it has happened with Upper Deck, and if you count Star as a major company them too. (UD twice, once faking their own cards but not a sports set)

Jeez, how hard is it to spell Schoendienst?!

He's only been a notable figure for 80 years.
