Default E254 Colgan's Chip curiosity

Posted By: brian parker

I didn't think anyone would have one of these 'Colgan's' printed on the front, since I had never seen or heard of such a card in my many years of collecting.

When mentioning undervalued/underappreciated sets from the 1910 era, this one has be near the top of the list, because not only is it such an unusual shape for a card (along with its Red Border brother and those very rare Ju-Ju Drums), but also because it features unaldulterated portrait photos of the major and minor leaguers of the day. What other set of the era offers the same, except for the incredibly inflated Ramly T204's? I think the round shape just doesn't seem like a 'card' to most pointy corner collectors.
