Whats the differences??
 

I recently purchased this card:
Labeled as a 1929 Shoew Japanese Babe Ruth
Sent it into SGC for grading and comes back labeled as
1928 Shonen Kulubu
I know there also a Churchmans variation too.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCES, HOW CAN I TELL??
And if theres any $$$ pricing differences???

Well, the one that has Japanese symbols on it ... is not a Churchmans.

Hope this helps in some small way. :rolleyes:

I have a friend in Japan that could translate the charactars for you. Pm me and we can exchange emails, if you are interested. Hiro would be glad to help!:)

Easier than all that. I saved the pictures from your post, and with your permission, I can send them to Hiro for translation. Let me know if you want to do it!

HI Chris,
Who labeled the card as "Shoew"? I have alway known this card to be a Shonen. The Churchman's version is the size of a British Tobacco card and not postcard size like your Shonen.

Probstein123...is the one that labeled as such ^^^^
I informed him today and that i had it graded by SGC 40 and they labeled as a Shonen.
His Response: ENJOY!

if he put that, its a typo, this is a Shonen.

Shonen Club Postcard, Issued in 1929 Shonen Magazine
(as far as i have known)

Churchman has the same immage as well

Real Nice you you have too!

It's a 1929 issue as mentioned above (and here also: Link). I believe that the SCD shows the issue from 1928, which is the reason for that SGC and PSA label it that way.
