Any Tobin trade card experts out there?

Different subset. Looks to be uncataloged by Keetz (I have the 2nd edition of his book)

Kind of like the H804-1 Tobin "Baby Talk Series" has 4 subsets,...... H804-1A, H804-1B, H804-1C, H804-1D.
H804-2 has 3 subsets, H804-5 has 3 subsets, H804-7 has 4 subsets, etc.


Now you just have to see if there are more cards in this set
Im sure there are and the captions may be the same as the "known" H804-26 set, like the "Oh What a Snap!" is.

This particular trade card is from the H804-26 set of 4. It's a large card series (4-7/16" x 7"). The 4 cards in the complete set are:

-A Home Run
-A Regular Corker
-A Sure Thing
-Oh What a Snap!

I don't think it's a Tobin issue, but something very similar. I believe it to be a 'stock' card, which means the image was widely distributed to many different stores and each would then stamp on their particular ad. Consequently, it is possible to find the same trade card image with a different advertisement.

Hope this helps, and thanks to Frank Keetz and his 'Baseball Advertising Trade Cards' - Third Edition for the support in responding to this question.

Thanks for posting guys! Here is another one with the different border, so it looks like there are different subsets at work here.
