Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Hey Folks,<br />I am very biased towards OldCardboard Magazine in a positive manner. It's a great mag for our vintage cards and I don't know of another current one being produced. I assure everyone I have no financial interest at all in the magazine or it's operations but if you haven't subscribed you should. It has great articles and pictures and lot's of information in it. If you are reading this forum then you really should be a subscriber. It will be the best $23.50 you spend this year, I assure you. (and you can see that great article by me <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> ) best regards<br /><br /><a href="http://www.oldcardboard.com" target="_new">http://www.oldcardboard.com</a>/

Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>Very cool article about Breisch-Williams. The rest is typically high standards as well. So far the quality has improved every issue and the delivery schedule is also good.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Brian's article was great and Jerry Spillman's had some beautiful photographs of display pieces. The color printing is first rate, something that was always missing from VCBC. And color pictures is really the whole ballgame when it comes to memorabilia.

Posted By: <b>Bryan Long</b><p>I would be interested in knowing what SGC plans to do in the way of a vintage card magazine as well. Will it only be vintage?

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Thanks for the kind words everyone. Seems that the article was very well-timed too with the recent surge in popularity for the e107 set. Not that e107s needed MORE hype though.....

Posted By: <b>Julie</b><p>(I keep thinking that's MY Thomas they use--I guess it is, because I bought it from Brian). I gotta call Tik& Tik, and find out who "Nik" is. Leon: having developed quite a few pictures in my day, I think the negatives you present SHOULD have produced better positives than they did. How about it? Ah. Self-developing. What the hell is "the open window of a camera? I HAD a camera in 1949, and it wasn't a Brownie, either. But--nothing was open...artificial or sunlight...would recommend STRONG<br />light...<br />There are only EIGHT series #2 Breich-Williams? I mean, one pose each of 8 players...geez. <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/jphotos/e107Thomas.jpg"> <br /><br />Tsk, tsk. The Fan Craze Bender in the B.W. article came out in 1906 (not 04), the same as all the other Fan Craze...<br /><br />Nice to see new faces in the Collectors' Corner...and new names.

Posted By: <b>Scott Forrest</b><p>The t206 looks slightly different. They might have touched up the uni, changed the shirt folds and Bender's eyes but that doesn't really make sense. It was very common for players to be photographed several years apart and look almost exactly the same - obvious examples are Jimmy Collins and Keeler. There are even some batting poses that never seemed to change - I've seen several Mantle posed LH shots that are almost identical, but not quite.
