I no longer own the card, as I sold it in 1991
, but I had an N28 Mike Kelly with Buck Barker's address stamp (the same red one that Leon posted) on the back. I bought it from Lew Lipset back in the early 1980's.Steve |

I used to have many 1911 Obaks (red backs) with Barker's scribbling on the back about teams and positions but in trying to get a higher grade set, sold most of them, keeping only a couple for nostalgia sake. I also have several 1911 and 1912 Zeenuts with Barker's hand-scratchings on the back, showing he had a complex system of keeping track of the cards by numbers.

Buck Barker was a legendary old time collector, and is considered a founding father of the hobby. And yes, the card you scanned once belonged to him.
