Default Can someone explain "paper stock" to me..

Posted By: Goudey Guy

I used to see many items listed in the ungraded pre-1950 section of Ebay for "paper stock" cards, but never really understood their origin or relation to real cards. Then I didn't see any for awhile. The other day I was browsing through graded material, for which I do not buy, and I noticed auctions for "paper stock" items again. I'm well aware that these are not cataloged vintage baseball cards in the true sense, but was wondering if some of the experts out there could explain what exactly these items are. I'm under the impression that these are media pictures, cut from various newspapers, books, and other reading curriculum.
