E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I generally go by the ACC to classify my cards. Sometimes I think things sort of start rolling along and no one really ever questions them. I am curious what others think about this. This is page 101 from the American Card Catalog, Jefferson Burdick revised last in 1960. I have updated my own personal web page to reflect this..... though I am not going to be so pompous as to think everyone should change their category....as it does say "see list e92". I am calling it F211 unless there's a good reason not to..(to not confuse anyone maybe it could be F211/E92 ?)..And a good reason is not "it's always been done that way"..at least to me it isn't....Anyway, kind of fun to debate stuff like this....<br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1156722745.JPG">

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Leon,<br /><br />I think according to your photocopy of the ACC posted, F211 refers to Hires Root Beer. The ACC designation was left blank for Crofts Cocoa (see line on left) which probably means "listed under E92 if you were looking in this location of the catalog in error"<br /><br />

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>cmoking</b><p>it looks to me that the Croft's Cocoa line has nothing to do with F211. It was inserted there because it was baseball...and told people where to look. The dash "-" in front of Croft's Cocoa shows it is a different entry than F211. An entry was placed here to let people know where to look, in case they looked under Beverages and Desserts for the Croft's Cocoa cards.<br /><br />Edited to add: IMO, trying to classify Croft's Cocoa as F211 is a mistake, unless the Croft's Cocoa cards are identical to the Hires Root beer cards (which I assume they are not). If you wanted to get cute, you could say they are F211A or F211.5, but I don't think many would agree with that either.

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Seth B.</b><p>I have to agree with king that it would be a mistake: the E92s are all on the same card stock, and the front images are the same, just the backs differ. This differs from, say, E106 which has the same front, but the stock and production is obviously different. I think the Croft's are a subset of the larger "E92," distributed with different sweet products. Maybe calling them "caramels" is misleading, but they're closer to the other E92s by far than to the Hire's root beer cards. <br />Leon, I see from your website that you have a Croft's cocoa bottle, the exact one from the backs of the cards. But do we know exactly <i>how</i> the cards were distributed with the cocoa? I mean, they weren't just stuffed into the bottle, were they?

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Like I said I don't expect anything to be changed...I am only bringing this subject up for debate, and have personally changed it on my site. I am not convinced yet that it's not an F. Under E92 the catalog says <br /><br />E92- Baseball Gum (50) Dockman, Croft and Allen, Nadja......... .20 (kind of a low value by today's standards)<br /><br /><br />So the only place it is mentioned is in the F section and it's not an F series?.... I am willing to change my mind if I'm proven wrong (probably will be) ....but so far I haven't seen it....keep going <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Scott Mosley</b><p>Hi Leon,<br /><br />Interesting topic and I know you are having some fun with it.<br /><br />Let me give you the obvious answer that they belong with E92 but I'll give a different reason than you might expect.<br /><br />Even though Crofts Cocoa cards are known as such and prominently display the Cocoa Jar advertisement on the back, I think many often overlook the fact that these cards are actually advertising for Montague & Co. <br /><br />Montague & Co. was a <u>candy</u> manufactorer in the Philadelphia area and did indeed have a storefront listed in the Philadelphia City Directories at 11 South 15th Street in the 1910-1911 timeframe.<br /><br />Here is a picture of their plant circa 1916<br /><br /><img src="http://home.comcast.net/~jillmay5/misc/Montague_Co_23rd_Sansom.jpg"><br /><br />Obviously, people associate the cards with Croft & Allen because of the picture of the Crofts Cocoa jar on the reverse but if you consider the fact it is really advertising for Montague & Co, then the "E" classification fits.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />Scott<br /><br /><br /><br />

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Nice pic...thanks for sharing. Let me throw a little more fuel into the fire... so to speak. The Crofts Cocoa jars I have, dated 1901 and another with the Food Act of 1906 imprinted on it , with a copyright of 1901... (so had to be 1906 or later), say that they are from the Croft and Allen Company, Philadelphia. Not sure if they got bought out or what.....but these cocoa jars, with similar graphics to the cards, were put out by Croft and Allen Co.....<br />best regards <br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1156731548.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1156731726.JPG">

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>joe</b><p>Leon, I have a copy of the 1953 ACC and none the F series matches your F series from 1960. So did Burdick completely revise the book? I will admit I am no expert with the ACC cataloging. I might be missing something, not as detailed as some on this board.<br /><br />Joe

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Scott Mosley</b><p>From the limited amount of information I could find out about Montague & Co. they seemed to have one "plant" but several retail stores at various addresses around the Philadelphia area during the period.<br /><br />I don't think that it is unreasonable that Montague & Co. would sell a competitors product at their retail stores (such as Crofts Cocoa) especially if they didn't make a competing Cocoa product.<br /><br />And it wouldn't surprise me if the cards were made available from the various retail stores where you could stop by and get a cup of hot Crofts Cocoa straight from their fountain as the back of the cards state.<br /><br />Just my theory... nothing to prove it (yet) <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I am certainly no expert at this stuff but it's fun to theorize and so forth. As for the ACC I made sure I looked and saw the revision date...and it's 1960 ....this copy I have was originally reprinted by Richard Gelman...He says..to quote <br /><br />" The American Card Catalogue is now available once again. After receiving so many requests, the original text has been reprinted exactly as it appeared in the last edition (1960), along with the original prices."<br /><br />So if yours says something other than what I scanned, and is a copy of the ACC, then I would say it changed.....but who am I to question?

Posted By: <b>joe</b><p>Leon, here is my copy. Does not have any F200 series at all. For example, I see your copy has F101 as Flags and Scenes mine has F101 as Famous Airplanes.

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>Wow! A topic that I absolutely love!<br /><br />First a few comments/opinions -<br /><br />Seth - I believe that the 4 e92 fronts are all the same, but the fronts of the later issues such as e106, t216 and d303 are not the same as the e92s. They are very similar, but there are subtle differences such as redrawings, recolorings and missing/adding logos, etc.<br /><br />Leon - I am not sure if you are just kidding about the F211 designation, but it looks pretty clear that Burdick meant for F211 to represent Hires Root Beer. I can see your argument for Crofts Cocoa being an F issue, and perhaps Burdick wanted to add the designation, but never assigned the F number. Perhaps he just put it in the catalog version that you have under "F" as a placeholder until he could get more input from fellow collectors. But it seems clear with the line to the left that there is no F designation assigned for Crofts Cocoa.<br /><br />Scott - your research is great stuff! I agree with your premise that Montague & Co. was selling Croft's & Allen Cocoa at their retail establishment. I don't believe that Croft's was a competing company. I think that their cocoa product complimented whatever else Montague was selling at their locations. Just a guess, like yours. We have both been chipping away at this stuff for a while <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Some items that have been acquired along the way:<br /><br />Crofts Cocoa Bottle:<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/tutorials015.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br />Crofts Cocoa Tin:<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/AL06-8240.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br />Crofts Cocoa Trade Cards:<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/cocoaback.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br />Picture of Croft & Allen factory on back of candy tin:<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/tutorials013.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br />Small "candy" spoon with "Montague & Co" stamped into the base of the spoon and "Crofts" embossed into the handle.<br /><br />This last piece is the best indicator that perhaps serving Crofts Cocoa or Crofts Candies in Montague & Co stores was a joint venture or business alliance?<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/AL5-06146.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/AL5-06145.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i69.photobucket.com/albums/i52/rman444/AL5-06144.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br /><br />

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Peter_Spaeth</b><p>King is clearly right, the catalog just has a cross-referenceto E92 under F211 (baseball players in the beverage category) in case someone happened to look for Crofts under beverages instead of candy, which would not have been illogical to do. I guess it's debatable whether Burdick's classification was correct, but I see no other way to interpret the catalog.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I am going to put this back to E92 but I don't think it's clear cut.....And Burdick deviated from "e" for early candy and gum to include this beverage issue. It's not the first time.....I am going to pick a few more out to talk about too....but those will be for new threads...Thanks to all who gave thoughtful input....BTW, I have a very cool wooden box with Crofts and Allen mfg plant on it that I might post.....but it's at home and I am not...regards

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Richard</b><p>1) Who believes that E92s should be broken down into 4 separate sets with 4 separate ACC numbers? <br /><br />2) Who believes that there are actually 6 different sets, all with the same fronts but with different back variations (dockman, crofts candy, crofts cocoa, nadja, e101, e102)?<br /><br />My opinion:<br /><br />1) E92 should be broken down into 4 separate sets, each with its own number<br /><br />2) E101 and E102 are no more of a different set than any of the e92 individual sets<br /><br />

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>I agree 100% with cmoking. The Croft's Cocoa designation is not an F211 but rather included in this way to let anyone searching for card numbers of beverage drinks to go to the E92 designation to find the CCs which are not included in F211. They might have done a better job of pointing this out, but it is obvious to me that is what they have done.

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Seems to me that Crofts Candy cards are E92, and may need an extention with a dash. And that Crofts Cocoa REALLY IS F211. <br /><br />It seems some collectors don't want their cards to be "F" cards, and would prefer them to be "E" cards... but that seems incorrect. Kinda like folks who have lots of money tied up in cards, so they feel better if they consider that an "investment". <br /><br />Ted Z has clearly stated the difference above, notwithstanding what slab businesses think.<br /><br />Frank.

E92 Crofts Cocoa is really F211 ?
Posted By: <b>Elliot</b><p>Pretty clear from the ACC page that it can't be a F211. Now a F-unc is a whole different story. I think a reasonable argument can be made that Burdick did not list the card seperately under the E category, and only referenced to the E92's (under the F's) to show that the front was similiar to an E-92. Since he never assigned a particular number to the cards they would be F-unc.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I think we all need to be careful about our sarcasim on the board. Honestly, I couldn't tell Richard was just being sarcastic either.....it's hard to tell when all we have are keystrokes and an impromptu smiley face to look at. Since Burdick didn't specifically name the Crofts Cocoa's in a set I like Elliots idea of "F-unc." It makes more sense. For now I will go with the flow and leave them as E cards....as I have been sarcastically told that we all know early candy and gum equals cocoa <img src="/images/sad.gif" height=14 width=14> .... <br />
