Ralph & Barry (and others?),
Very interesting information. Any scan would be great, as I'd really enjoy reaching out to the seller again with this new information about his grandfather. Post them here, or feel free to email me directly at mackeyd@mailcity.com Best, Craig |

Craig,
I'm checking for Elias on my cards, so I can continue to be a part of this thread. Hopefully other stories will follow. Frank |

Of course, my grandmother's collection (www.themaconpeach.com), but I've discussed it before in The Macon Find thread.
Still finding out things about her to add to her site. Since I never received a reply about the backwards D card (Here: http://www.freewebs.com/thegreatt206...ct/gallery.htm), that I think belonged to my grandmother, I thought I'd try two other stamped back cards that were traded to my grandmother, bearing the initials of someone she probably traded with, to see if anyone recognizes them. They were on the back of an Old Mill cabinet and a T3. Can anybody identify it? If so, then maybe we can figure out the provenance. (Hope this isn't too OT) |

i have diamond stars that my dad collected in 1935 when he was 12. One day my uncle was mad at my dad and took a hole punch to his Luke Appling card. In my world this increased the value since every time I see the holes it makes me laugh.

I wish someone would solve the mystery of who stamped Purple Stars on their T206 cards

This PC with "Moonlight" (back row 3rd from left) was sent from his manager Hank Ramsey (also in photo) to Bill McCabe. Ramsey & McCabe were founders of the Hudson River League and managed together in the Hudson River League from 1903-1906. In 1907 Ramsey left to coach Scranton and the league folded mid-season.

We've seen a few "Theo V. Temple" exhibits over the years, but this *may* be his signature:

Now the collection stands at an even 200. Also found out through business records that the address was not only a home, but the address of grocery store owned by McCormick's dad and his business partner, whose last name was Howe. |
