Default Uncatalogued Standard Biscuit Hall of Famer

Posted By: Tim Newcomb

that may or may not be significant. Standard Biscuit issued also cards with E135-style (Collins-McCarthy) fronts. This set differs from the default Collins-McCarthy checklist by at least some cards, and possibly by many. I have one of them, an E135 Standard Biscuit card of Dave Davenport that isn't in any checklist I've seen.

To my knowledge this Standard Biscuit set has never been fully checklisted. Mr. Lemke? It's a tough job, but...

The fact that the E135 Standard Biscuit issue also differs from the default set may lend credence to Paul's speculation about the M101 issues. It seems to suggest that Standard Biscuit, which was one of the few companies to issue cards in both M101-4 and M101-5, may have had their cards printed independently of the rest, and could have substituted Wallace (and who knows how many more?) cards in their set.

Does anyone else have other info on these Standard Biscuit sets?
