Default Real "Cards" & Your Thoughts!!!!

Posted By: Rhett Yeakley

Brad, Zeenuts were produced with Candy, they had factory cut borders and they are on somewhat thick stock. True all cards NOT from 1911, 1912, and 1938 came with a coupon on bottom, however Zeenuts are as much a set of "baseball cards" as any American Caramel, Goudey, etc. set.

I always find it funny how people choose what's a "card" or not. To me, if it pictures a baseball player, was somewhat "mass produced" or produced with the intent to be collected by people I could care less if it was round or square, Baguer sized or a magazine premium, flat piece of cardboard, silk, felt, or a pin I like them all, and collect them all. Period.

The next thing you are gonna tell me is Colgans are not cards because they aren't between the size of t206 and standard topps size, oh yeah and they have somewhat rounded corners.
