Cast Iron HOF Busts
 

Hi Gang:

A seller on ebay has listed 12 different of the seldom seen 1963 HOF Busts in cast iron.

See one here:https://www.ebay.com/itm/Babe-Ruth-R...kAAOSwk99ak3JV

Is this seller here on Net 54 or does anyone have direct contact info for him?

My question is has anyone seen any others than the 12 he has listed? I have the same 12 . Namely Cochrane, Cobb, Di Maggio, Gehrig, Hornsby, Johnson, Mathewson, McGraw, Ruth, Sisler, Speaker, and Wagner

There were 20 of the busts issued in the "regular" set so I am wondering if the others are out there.

Also if anyone has any history on these as to who issued them where they came from etc. it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Fred

I would love to know about them too. Everyone calls them prototypes. While they are rare, I have seen way too many of these to think they are actual prototypes. It feels like there must be some other explanation, but have no idea what it might be.

Same sentiment here.... These have been a mystery for far too long.

And I agree.... NOT prototypes!
