Posted By: <b>Wesley</b><p>Dave, Maple Crispette cards are great. I would bet that if you listed your Pennock card on the BST in the near future, that it would do very well.

Posted By: <b>Ed Hans</b><p>Dave,<br /> Nice card from an interesting set. I wonder if it's the same card I sold raw several years ago. I always thought Maple Crispettes were a candy, though.

Posted By: <b>Scott M.</b><p>Hi Dave,<br /><br />I don't believe that we've done any transactions so I have no issues with you personally. I would be certain to contact you personally if I did.<br /><br />I was just pointing out to Wes that I think the card would do equally as well on eBay (its a popular issue) and that the BST shouldn't be your only option if it were a card that you decided upon selling down the road.

Here's his web pages on them:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.freewebs.com/goudeyhunter/maplecrispette.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.freewebs.com/goudeyhunter/maplecrispette.htm</a><br /><a href="http://www.freewebs.com/goudeyhunter/maplecrispetteads.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.freewebs.com/goudeyhunter/maplecrispetteads.htm</a><br />

Posted By: <b>Wesley</b><p>Does the Casey Stengel card on Eric's website belong to Eric? That is one heck of a card.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p><br />I was happy to pick up this Traynor this evening. I doubt I'll pick up anymore MC's unless I just stumble on something but am happy having both a Pennock and Traynor (solid HOF'ers) without breaking the bank on something like a Ruth or Bottomley.<br /><br /><br /><img src="http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l111/asphaltman76/mapletraynorf.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Scott M.</b><p>Another nice pickup, Dave!<br /><br />I always wonder, with issues like this, how many cards or complete sets were lost due to the redemption offer on the back.

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>Thanks Scott.<br /><br />I'd love to see what one of these cards in high grade (SGC 84 or something) would go for. Almost appears SGC 40 is mid-grade with this issue.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>These were printed on poorer quality paper and very thin so the condition is often an issue.....my type of Cobby and a rare blank back<br /><img src="http://luckeycards.com/pv117x2.jpg"><br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>Thats funny on the Pennock, that scraggly line above the border on the top left. I thought it was a mark on mine..but I guess its on all or most Pennocks? Some glitch on the printer plate I guess? Now wondering if there is a Pennock without one.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I think my Cobby is an SGC 30....these are plagued by wrinkles.....and when I mentioned thin stock I should have said "thinner" as there are other issues much thinner.....this series might be more "medium-thin" <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
