As I mentioned in the parallel thread on CU, I've previously declined the opportunity to list these in the catalog data base.
Despite the numbers, they stray too far afield from the concept of player cards/collectibles. They have no names, no stats, bios, etc. They are really just big composite pictures on cheap stock.

"They have no names, no stats, bios, etc. They are really just big composite pictures on cheap stock."
So, in other words, strip cards...individually numbered and capable of being cut up into separate cards. FWIW, the boxers will go into my next edition of the boxing catalog.

I'm pretty sure the same type of cards/photos was sold in the most recent Hunt's auction (the internet version).

I think an argument could be made they are order or sales forms....

I picked up one of the sheets, the one with the boxers. They aren't order forms or anything else than what they appear to be. Which are strip cards. They are just like W512, W513, W560, W565, W590 or any other sheet-based strips.

I forgot to mention this - I found out that they are called 1955 All American Sports Club.
I just got confirmation from Hunt Auctions that there was indeed a completed auction of these. They did not know what to call them. The auction was not archived, but Daisy (the lady's name) at Hunt Auctions sent me the description and the photo. In there auction, there was only 10 of the 16 sheets and it sold for a whopping $880.00 plus juice. Plus, mine looks like it is in much better condition than the Hunt lot. In the Hunt lot, some had pin holes. Mine has no pin holes and mine is a complete set of 16. Thanks for the heads up on the Hunt Auction. Last edited by frankhardy; 02-23-2010 at 08:22 PM. |
