Help with some cards that bother me...

Posted By: J Levine

Okay...I have a few cards on my Phillies list that I have never seen that I still cannot determine if they are pictured as a Phillie player or not...I did this a few years ago and was able to confirm a few and knock a few off the list. Listed below are some cards I would love scans of (or if you have for sale or trade for that matter) I would truly appreciate it.

'35-'37 Geroge Burke Photostamps #'s: 23 Si Johnson(?) may be other Phillies.

1898 Cameo Pepsin Gum Pins #'s: Donahue(?)

1920 D381-1 Gassler's American Maid Bread #'s: Nehf(?)

1911 Diamond Gum Pins #'s: Thomas(?)

1910 E-271 Darby Chocolates #'s: 23 Luderous(?)

1939-46 Exhibits Salutations #'s: 56 Rizzo(?)

1938 Foto Fun #'s: 11 Camilli(?), 64 Muellar(?)

1915 Postaco Stamps #’s: Grover Cleveland Alexander(?)

1932 R-337 #'s: 422 Wilson(?)

1926 Sports Comapny of America Champions #'s: 2 Alexander(?)

1915 T-214 Victory #'s: 19 Magee(?)

These would be in a minor league uniform.

Marty,
Not all the Worch showed minor leaguers and the two guys I listed had been in the majors for a few years when these came out. Just not sure if they are pictured with the Phillies or with another team.

Thanks for the response though.

You can take the Diamond Gum pin off your list. It's Ira Thomas, who I collect. He played for the A's.

Patrick,
Thanks...at one time I must have seen it listed as Thomas Phila. and completely blanked on Ira. You are correct...crossing it off as we speak.

Any other help?

The Cameo Pepsin Pin is of Tim Donahue (Chicago)

Edited to also add:

Nehf never played for Philadelphia and Gassler's share checklist with E121 Series of 80 so he would be for New York

Rawlings' W575-1 cards list him for New York Nat'l

More thanks...Scott, I am pretty sure I saw that card in your sale but was unable to determine if he was pictured as a Phillie. Unfortunately in 1910 Fred played for both the Phils and Cubs so I am still not sure. It does look like a Phils sweater but just not positive because it looks like there might be a "c" on his cap.

Hi Joshua,

Will check my W575-1 Rawlings tonight and let you know tomorrow if it is the 2b or 2nd base and what team.

Hi Joshua,

I have the W575-1 Rawlings, 2B variation, and the team on this card is listed as New York Nationals.

While checking this card I did notice something interesting. The NY logo on his cap, which is evident on the E121 series of 80 version of Rawlings, appears to have been airbrushed out on the W575-1 card I have. I never would have noticed without checking on this card for you, so thanks, and I hope this info helps you out.

The back says describes him as a former Phillie and Cub and currently the "star twirler for the St. Louis Cardinals."

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I'm not sure if this question was ever answered for you:



Now -- what I would love is if someone could tell me anything of substance about the Postaco issue. Is there an album? How were they distributed? Do the sheets of twelve actually still exist?

I've heard of some similar Postaco turtle stamps from the same time period. But generally know nothing about this issue.

Thanks...I actually bid on a similar Postaco a few months ago so it got answered. Unfortunately, I know very little about the issue. Thanks again.

Still looking for information or scans of the following....

'35-'37 Geroge Burke Photostamps #'s: 23 Si Johnson(?) may be other Phillies.

1939-46 Exhibits Salutations #'s: 56 Rizzo(?)

1938 Foto Fun #'s: 11 Camilli(?), 64 Muellar(?)

1915 T-214 Victory #'s: 19 Magee(?)

1933 Worch Cigar/Minneapolis Star #’s: Sy Johnson(?) and J. Moore(?)
