Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Thanks for posting your Weaver. Eventually I would like one of those type 1's but they have gotten to be a tad expensive? Here are a few more since folks seem a little shy....These 2 are the plate examples from Lew's Encyclopedia....which makes them a little more neat...<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1217023506.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Hal</b><p>I noticed that the Type 2 Weaver and Type 2 Suter (Sutor) both have "Alfred" handwritten on the back. Does this have any significance?

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>picked this up for $100 a few years ago....I had been wanting one but they were always a little more than I wanted to pay.....I think I haggled on this one for a few weeks before buying it....btw, I don't think talking about values or money is a bad thing as long as it's kept in perspective. As I have recently acquired hobby periodicals back to 1961 there has always been talk of valuation vis-à-vis collecting......<br /><br /><img src="http://luckeycards.com/pe135collinsmcarthystengel.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Jeff S.</b><p>Any idea if E99's/E100's were issued in a product such as Glace Prunes (stuffed with walnuts)? This box dates from after 1901, as the inside cover lists various awards won at expositions and fairs. Also includes a small letter from the company:<br /><br /><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/ladypaper/Bishop1.jpg"><br /><br /><img src="http://imgs.inkfrog.com/pix/ladypaper/Bishop2.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Brian</b><p><br />All of the cards in this thread are very ugly, and should not be kept.<br /><br />Please let me know when they are for sale...

Posted By: <b>Al C.risafulli</b><p>Well, the original post said California (PCL) Candy, but since Leon posted the Perfesser in his pre-PCL days, I'll post some of my California candy cards - these are my favorites. Some of them scanned as black and white, but you get the point:<br /><br /><img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJRuth.jpg"> <img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJCobb.jpg"><br /><img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJJohnson.jpg"> <img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJCarey.jpg"><br /><img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJEvers.jpg"> <img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJFaber.jpg"><br /><img src="http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a56/Novocent/HJRixey.jpg"><br /><br />-Al
