1934 Newton Annis Furs - Detroit Team issue

[jeffmohler]

Sorry to resurrect this thread. It looks like someone made an offer the seller couldn't refuse on the near set that was ending on Ebay soon. Anyone here win it?

I don't see that image of Rogel in the slab anywhere on that poster. Which one on the poster is Rogel? I don't think it's a matter of different cropping on that one, it's a different image.

It's there, Frank. Look at the top picture on the poster...then at the picture down to his immediate left (as you look at the screen). It's right there.

Please...no threads titled "Show your Annis."

Thank you.

And my tired old eyes thank you.

I see bats and more on the card. Reckon the card images got cropped so they'd fit well on the poster? The poster's images are about square, unlike the cards.

And a neat thread on a nice card set.

Frank, in the shortstop position on the field in the poster.

I recently won in an auction the "Detroit Tiger Team Issue Set". These were issued with 2 envelopes of 10 cards each. Enclosed in the envelope was the attached card ( see scans). It lists stats from the 1934 season on the back and lists all the World Series results from 1903 thru 1934 on the front. So this appears to be a 1935 issued set not 1934 ( after the 1934 World Series at the earliest). And I believe the printer of the set is "Wilmac Printers" of Detroit. It appears that Newton Annis Furs brought out a poster with 23 players on it. I wonder did they also bring out a set of 23 or just the poster. I know 23 players exist.

This set of all 23 just sold individually by one seller on ebay for a combined total of $3700.00. The highest priced was the Greenberg, $1425.00 and the lowest the Cochrane, surprisingly, $40.00.

Man, I just did my periodic search a few mins ago. Wouldn't have won Greenberg, but likely would have won the other HOFers. Bummer.
