Posted By: <b>John S</b><p>I believe that a board member won the Speaker piece on eBay. I picked up a few of these from a German collector a few years back. His notes to me were that they were cataloged as N230, were Cuban, and issued in 1915. Is that information correct? How rare are they compared to other contemporary issues? Are there other Susini issues? The examples that I have are not colorized. I have posted one of mine below. The image was later used on Churchman's and Edward, Ringer, & Bigg Sports of the World sets.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1218723713.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Steve Murray</b><p>Yes I won the Speaker but know very little about the issue. Curious that it has an "N" designation inasmuch as it is a 20th Century card.<br /><br />Looking forward to some input as well.<br /><br />P.S. Missed you and your Dad at the National. Maybe next year.

Posted By: <b>Steve Murray</b><p>No problem John. Here's the link. I've been trying to upload the scans to my photobucket so I could post them but was having some problems doing so.<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170247227791&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=007" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170247227791&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=007</a>

Posted By: <b>Glen V</b><p>Originally, the ACC used N for Central and South American cards (N230 Susini, N258 Diaz,). There was no letter for 19th century cards (28 Allen & Ginter, 162 Goodwin).

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>I don't know how someone pinpointed the year to 1915, but the cards are from that era,
