Posted By: <b>mike mullins</b><p>Hello,<br /><br />Just curious -- is the poster that this card was cut from a period piece? i.e., was it a ca. 1914 advertisement for the actual CJ card set? I get the impression that it is, but who knows? <br /><br />Does anyone have one of the whole ads? I'd love to see one.<br /><br />Thanks!<br /><br />mm

Posted By: <b>Judge Dred</b><p>It reminds me of the N28 cut outs from the albums. I guess if it is a true period piece then it could be an inexpensive alternative to the real deal. I just think it's wrong to say THIS CARD HAS THE ULTRA-RARE ADVERTISING BACK.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>These are not that rare and not worth near what an actual CJ card would be. They are like the E95 "proofs" that are actually cutouts from notebook covers. Seller seems to be adding a lot of hype to me. I would be interested in knowing the basis for calling 1914 as opposed to 1915.<br />JimB

Posted By: <b>Dan Koteles</b><p>wouldn't it make sense that the cut out should be from 1914 ?...<br /><br />why broadcast something 2 yrs late into it when you are trying to sell cracker jacks?<br /><br />guess we can probe on stuff that is clueless , eh?<br /><br />
