47-66 Exhibit with a Post-Gazette ad on back
Posted By: Dan Lundrigan
Hi all,this is my first time posting on the postwar card side of net 54 so I hope you think it`s a good one.I recently picked up a few of these and I have never heard of this a Post-Gazette ad on the back of a 47-66 Exhibit card.Could this be considered a new discovery?Would PSA or SGC even grade this?I`m hoping the Exhibit experts out there will chime in with there opinions on this and maybe shed some light on this for me. |

Interesting. Can you post the front of the card? Who's on it? |

I know there is a set of Exhibits with "Dad's Cookies" on the back, but I've never seen one with your back. It certainly isn't common. |

I don`t have the cards in my possesion yet so I don`t know who is on the front.I asked the seller for a scan of the back so that is all I have right now.When the cards arrive I will provide a list of players and post more scans of the backs.I assume all the backs are the same as the one shown.Anyone have a Dad`s Cookies back to share I have never seen one? |

Here's the front of the Dad's Friend card. They hide pretty well, but it does have the standard staple holes at the top and bottom of the card. |

Here are the cards for everyone to see.Based on the following information I believe they are from 1948.The made in usa matches this info as does the "McCaskey" card. |

Thanks for your input Adam,just so I understand this correctly you believe the ad on the back was printed after the fact by the Post-Gazette and would not be an authorized Exhibit offering. |

I sold my Dad's Cookies card as it was post 1950. I only collect pre-1950 for the most part. The value didn't go along with the scarcity...I think it brought less than $75......and it did have the staple hole in it. My thought is that they were stapled to bags of cookies but if there are ones without staple holes I guess all of them weren't.....If any of those exhibits with the ad back become available I would be interested in one.. |

I think, based on other cards I've seen, that on occasion ESCO made deals to print the backs of their cards with specific information for a business. In addition to the cookie cards mentioned already, I've seen ads for movie theaters on 1920s and 1930s exhibits and even an ad for a baseball card publication. I've also seen the cards with post-cutting ink stamps on the backs for advertisers, but these are readily distinguished from printings by their hand-placed look. |

Some cards I will want to hang onto but I will listen to any offers or trades.I would love to find the rest of these for a complete set of 32 or 64 cards but that is probably an exercise in futility.I will post again when I am ready to part with some,right now I do not have a lot of time to sit down and decide what to do with these. |
