net 54 type collection - PART 2

[Archive]

Posted By: Ben

Here it goes, part 2 of the board wide type collection! This one seems about twice as tough as the last one, so how about a 2-card per person limit until Sept. 1st, and a free-for-all after that. It's also recommended that you host your own image rather than uploading to the net 54 domain, just so the pics will stay up for longer than two weeks. Max has graciously offered his webspace to host images, you can contact him at weder@shaw.ca.

I was just thinking that maybe we could add the P&S to the checklist?

The Peck and Snyder card is a photo of the 1869 Red Stockings, the first baseball team that was entirtely professional (they all got paid). Mine has an ad back, pressumably a characature of Mr. Peck, and the names of the players on the front; Hal's has the names of the players on the back, and is considered somewhat rarer.

The PE2 Diamond Gum Pin, less than 1 inch in diameter, came out in 1911, and celebrates the victory of that year of the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series. Many subjects are members of that team.

Unfortunately, it is impossible for me to post a picture of the drool coming out of my mouth right now. If Scott and Wayne would like to donate the Ramly Johnson and a Wagner to my new old collection, I would be much abliged.

Kevin (or anyone who can answer), can you give me some background (year, scarcity, value, set, etc.) of the Allegheny Card Company card you posted? Great looking card.

Posted By: Kevin Cummings

The supposition is that all the cards in circulation were part of a single test market issue produced as a prototype for a prospective investor or manufacturer. Despite the legend on the reverse, I don't recall if research actually turned up any company named the Allegheny Card Company during the time at which the set was produced in either Allegheny, Pennsylvania or Detroit, Michigan. All the cards were supposedly hand cut. They were intended to be game cards like the Fan Craze sets although these cards are a tad thinner than those. Only National League players are pictured. The entire boxed set was discovered in the late 1980s and then auctioned off a couple of time intact before they were broken up for individual sales. Lew Lipset owned the entire set at one time, I believe, and then sold at least half of the 104 cards to Sportscards Plus. I got the Cooley from them.

Reposting my contribution (now hosted on my website so that the image doesn't disappear as fast as my paycheck does!)

a Horner cabinet (someone posted a gorgeous one a couple of months ago!), Old Cardboard has a beautiful WG1 on their website--doesn't mean they own one, of course--I KNOW people have these things, and others, because they CROWED about them when they got them! And JC probably has everything I haven't mentioned. Leon, NOBODY will EVER get tired of looking at your FBH Kelly...Bruce B, I think your collection has similar furniture to that you've already posted...

2-card limit expired yersterday!

as a type collector I am at an unfair advantage.......I will post about half of the remaining empty slots, later this evening, if no one else does......and I still don't really collect cabinets or pins.....(besides the cool Plowboy with ad back I won the other day from Scott B).....later

Do you have the entire set? If I see any at flea markets around here I'll pick them up for you.

Leon, like I told you yesterday - I'm incredibly bored. I actually bought a card on ebay the other day - first one in several months.

Leon, these are supposed to be cards of baseball players, not doctors. Although there is no reason the team doc shouldn't get a card either Actually, I think the Mohler card is pretty neat.

Jay

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.

Posted By: leon

You might know this but that bag and coat on Moehler is/was for specific reasons. As the players of yesteryear didn't have fancy schmancy cars and all they would bring their shoes and belts and gloves (and possibly uniform) to the game in the doctor looking bag. They would cross the San Fran channel on a ferry. It would be cold even in the summertime so they would wear these overcoats to stay warm. They would then change over at the game. ...regards

Good history lesson for masses. I actually owned one of those satchels made for the SF Giants.

Hermes, Baltimore News (surprising!) and a Fan for a Fan--which I'm sure someone around here just got (not the Matty...)

from my collection..........

a Gypsy Queen LARGE (1887), a Joseph Hall Cabinet (1888), and a Dogs Head Cabinet (1888)The latter two are real scans; the first two are scanned , pirnted pieces of paper (I have the scans, but ran out of space).

Nice job in posting the scans Julie. Why can't we use higher res scans for posting??? I do not know how to downsize my PICS. Try to get the Carl Horner PIC in there as well.

After looking at part 1 and part 2 collections by the board. Just think what kind of auction catalog we could all put together. We might even be able to get away with a 30% buyer's premium with this kind of stuff?

You can probably resize your high resolution scan. It seemed to work nicely with the St Paul photo. It was scanned with an original size of 22 cm x 30 cm at 300 dpi. I reduced it to about 7 cm x 10, and it showed up nicely on the board.

If you want to send me your high resolution image, I'll try and resize and post it for the board

The other two are real. JC simply allowed me access.

Sometimes I should read the entire thread, or at least one post above the one I'm responded to. Point taken.

incomprehensible misunderstanding.

I fixed 2 of the 4 earlier JC scans (see above)... Anybody want to know how to get JC's scans into the Forum, intact, --I have a PATENT...
(seriously, e-mail me and I will explain)/ Max, please read your e-mail!

If you use Network54's hosting, the image can't be larger than 128KB. Use your own hosting (like your own, JC) and you can put up any size you want. You get what you pay for...

Julie:

My message meant that I didn't read your post when I replied to JC's post. That's all.

You know Canadians don't get angry.

And my offer of hosting scans certainly hasn't come to an end for you or anyone else--just send me the scan and I'll load them till I run out of room...
