HOF: 1 or 1's - Page 2

Great card, Jamie...I love that one...but with that rationale...every card that's no longer in it's original packaging is unique?!?!

cyseymour · #52 09-17-2013, 06:52 PM

Okay, it is an admittedly weak rationale, but I wanted to post the card.

Scientifically speaking, I suppose every card is unique since all cards hold a slightly different molecular composition.

So maybe provenance is a weak rationale, but not so bad as the scientific rationale of molecular differentiality?

Does finding an even potentially worse rationale help support my other, admittedly weak excuse for posting in the first place?

IT's cool, Jamie...it's an awesome card...with uber-cool provenance...I wish I had it...and Connie!!!!!

Here's my 1 of 1 of 1. Not only is the card unique, but it's Selee's only card.

Baker wasn't in the checklist until I told Bob Lemke about mine

The 1914 Spokane card is not the only one around.

Heck of a card Joe

Beautiful image.

This is a 1985-86 Sportflics Prototype of the great Joe DiMaggio.

Sign your name on the front (or back) of a 1986 Topps Don Mattingly and -- voila! -- assuming you don't do it again, it's unique. Like Ryan said, not sure that was the original intent of the thread.

Not a pre-war, but... You mean like this beauty? A true 1 of 1.

That mantle's awesome! Great disguise!

Great stuff, Ken!

h2oya311 · #65 09-19-2013, 06:29 AM

Wow Ken...WOW!!

I hope a second one of each of those cards surfaces...for my sake!!

aaroncc · #66 09-19-2013, 08:07 AM

Really like the Alexander Cartwright cabinet. Thats a cornerstone to any collection.

triwak · #67 09-19-2013, 09:00 AM

Thanks, guys.

Just messin' with you DanP, yours would grade higher than mine anyways!

Rhett, nice cards. No worries, now I can sell it. I was only keeping it because there was no record of any others on PSA or SGC.

Ken, WOW... nice stuff!

Great cards everyone! I love seeing unique cards and memorabilia.

paleocards · #69 09-19-2013, 09:58 AM

Amazing postcards!

Question about 1911 Chicago American Giants PC: Is Rube Foster standing with arms crossed third from left and is Pete Hill crouching at the left end of the middle row?

Correct on both.

ValKehl · #71 09-19-2013, 10:49 PM

I think (and hope!) these WaJo and Sam Rice strip cards with these advertising backs are the only ones known to exist - please ignore the Reuther/Fleer card:

ValKehl · #72 09-19-2013, 10:53 PM

A couple of T214s that I believe (and hope!) are the only ones known to exist:

ValKehl · #73 09-19-2013, 11:00 PM

I believe that all of the very few Leader Theatre cards (both types) that are known to exist are 1 of 1s - thanks again to Dan M. for this card, which is the "Holy Grail" of my Sam Rice collection:

joeadcock · #74 09-20-2013, 06:02 AM

Nice stuff Val
Always impressed with yur stuff

I think my Ryan might've come from the same collection..

novakjr · #76 09-20-2013, 04:32 PM

Anyways, here's my lone legit response...

I'd assume there are a bunch of these, but I've done a ton of looking, and I've never seen another on the net.. Hoping one of you guys out there can burst my bubble..

irishdenny · #77 09-22-2013, 03:27 PM

1905 RPPC - Cobb

"iS That a Policeman behind Mr Cobb?"

Looks like it, but it's actually a jeweler from Augusta, GA. (George Parquette).

David - ever since I saw your ML Die-Cut Dickey, I've searched for one, but to no avail. I've seen complete Was. team sets and Dickey never shows up. It must have been produced in the late 20s or early 30s w/ limited quantities, obviously.

If you ever find another, I'd happily buy your lower conditioned one!!!
