Default 1894 Alpha Engraving

Posted By: dan mckee

Yes I own these, you can view a few originals by clicking on the "me" next to my ebay ID R337MAN.

Great cabinet Hal, where did you get it?

Forgot to mention, Hal, there are about a half dozen of the 1894 cabinets that I know of, most in local Baltimore collections. 2 different variations exist.

There was an extensive well researched article in the VCBC about the set. It is well worth reading if you can get a copy from Jays Sports. (Hal's exact cabinet is pictured in the article)

Finally, you can throw out the prices in old cardboard and Krause for these cards. I had these cataloged only after I completed the set and owned all that is known.

Leon, the Thrilla in Manilla was a good fight! I was knocked out here in the opening seconds of the first round. Happy new Year guys and Gal. Dan Mckee.
