Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Paul- what set is that Willard Brown? Cool card.

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Nice Willard Brown, Paul. I have the Leon Day from that set, which I believe is scarcer than the Toleteros sets from the same era.

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Paul</b><p>Actually, this is a Toleteros. It is the final Toleteros set, issued in 1950-51. The other color set from Puerto Rico is the Denia set. I would bet that is the set that Phil's Leon Day is from. The two sets look very similar.

Posted By: <b>Rob D.</b><p>Scott,<br /><br />You might be right: There could be Upp-side potential in that E90-1.<br /><br />Seriously, I love that card.<br /><br />Rob

Posted By: <b>Jantz</b><p>Nothing spectacular with this, but this player front/back combo seems to be a little tougher to find according to SGC. Looks better in hand than in the scan.<br /><br /> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1222049738.JPG"> <br /><br /><br />Jantz

Posted By: <b>Steve Murray</b><p>I have to presume that those are graded 10's due to being postally used or having writing on the back. Max Stein's are notorious for centering. I've owned several, still have the McGraw, and I've never seen a centered one.<br /><br />BTW, beautiful cards!!!

Posted By: <b>paulstratton</b><p>Nice ones Jeff.

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Steve, Paul, thanks. They each have tiny staple holes in the tops and bottoms which caused the 10 grade. Considerng that PSA gives out 5s to cards with paper loss, maybe these would be 6s? <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Steven Finley</b><p>Come on? When I was with O.J. in Vegas we didn't use violence to get the memorabilia. Maybe I shouldn't have said kill. We'll settle on forcefully remove.
