Todd SchultzWhat's the status of Diaz Cigs, which would have been issued as the big-league rookies of Ted Lyons and Dazzy Vance? No go because they're offshore, or are they recognized? Jimmy crack corn to me, but I know many others are interested.
BTW, anybody notice how well Vance's 1928 exhibit sold for on e-bay, advertised as a rookie?:

It's not even his first exhibit card. The seller made a nearly identical statement on a recent 1927 Wilbert Robinson York card, saying it was one of his rarest and earliest cards--in fact, it's Robinson's penultimate card, preceded by more than a dozen others.
