Another mystery card from Ft. Washington
 
Posted By: <b>Tim Newcomb</b><p>Apparently the only other known cards from this set were auctioned in the last Mastro auction. (Correct me if I'm wrong, maybe everybody has them <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> )<br /><br />There's an apparently similar set called "Becker Theatres" listed in the 2005 SCD book, but no picture so I can't verify if they are the same photos with different backs. <br /><br />Anybody have any of these, or know anything about 'em?<br /><br />Tim<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1147453854.JPG"> <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1147453863.JPG">

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I picked up the one's in Mastro. Also, there is a similar, blank backed set, too....Although the blank backed set does look to be a little bit different paper stock....

Posted By: <b>Rich Klein</b><p>Lew L. had a set a while ago or wrote about said set in his old newsletter because we've had the set catalogued for quite in a while in our Beckett Almanac of Cards and Collectibles.<br /><br />Rich

Posted By: <b>Brad Green</b><p>I wasn't sure if the card I got from you was in the same group of blank-backed cards you referred to above. Thanks for clearing this up for me.<br /><br />BTW, nice pick-up, Tim! That's a nice looking card.<br /><br />Brad- I just re-read my response and it was confusing....sorry about that..the blank backed ones are the ones I had before....and you got Grove..<br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>martindl</b><p><br />I'm curious as to what the tiny print at bottom right says, if you'd care to post it.<br /><br />I wonder if the card was a ticket for the free baseball - heck of a prize.
