1949 Lummis Peanut Butter variation!!!!

[whiteymet]

Hi Guys:

If the 1949 Lummis cards are not hard enough to find as it is, I recently obtained one with a different back!

All of the few I have seen over the years have the first back below with Peanut Butter jars in both bottom corners.

But today's mail brought the "Schoolboy" Rowe card with the second back with NO Peanut Butter jars!!! The wording is the same except the following line that was added at the bottom of the new version.

Dated May 5, 1949 Offer for Limited Time Only

The font size is different on all words except HEY KIDS!

Anyone else have a Lummis with the no jars on the back?

Here is one from a Legendary Auction, but I don't know who is on the front. I googled this but the link is dead when you try to go to it. Edited: It's from an October 22, 2004 auction, and it says one of them is Del Ennis and the other is Bill Nicholson.

Apparently it is Ennis, here are the fronts.

Thanks for the info. I missed that auction I guess.

I own a Puddinhead Jones Lummis Peanut Butter card that used to belong to Leon, and it has the peanut butter jars in the corners. The Ashburn Lummis card sold in REA last year also has the peanut butter jars.

Huggins and Scott has auctioned two different Lummis cards in their history (both Del Ennis cards), and they each have the peanut butter jars. REA auctioned Bill Nicholson and Eddie Waitkus Lummis cards back in 2008, and they both have the peanut butter jars

I never took notice of the lack of peanut butter jars on the Lummis card in that Legendary auction until reading this thread.
