Please Show cards you believe could be one of a kind in your collection

I never get tired of showing the Selee. I don't know if the Joe McCarthy is unique, but I've never seen another.

Wow, great stuff Jim!

[atx840]

Jim, I was fortunate enough to hear a story at the Nation about those two....incredible cards.

Thanks for sharing.

[leaflover]

This combo might be special. There is no slot for it in the PSA registry "master set" or is it noted in the "pop" report. The card was in an "unknown" holder. I had it reholdered last year at the National.

[MVSNYC]

I believe this is the only BB example of Hoblitzell

I've shown this before, but it fits the bill. Baker was not known until I told Bob Lemke about mine.

[Tom Hufford]

I call this my Gold Border Team Card (1907 Atlanta Crackers). I don't know if its one-of-a-kind, but its the only one I've ever seen. Not from a T-card set, this one is a postcard. The T210 Smith is NOT one-of-a-kind - just shown for size comparison.

[slidekellyslide]

Sweet postcard, Tom! is it postmarked?

[bbpostcards]

For more, visit http://www.sportingoregon.com/ . The postcard shows the T210 Mascot image. It can be found in the Unusual Baseball Postcards gallery on the site. Glad to hear from you if you have postcards to sell or trade.

[butcher354435]

I haven't seen another one of these...

Jim Thorpe pre-baseball rookie. Issued around 1913-1914:

[butcher354435]

And I need to throw a few boxing cards out there... (Leon, if you want to keep this limited to just baseball subjects feel free to delete)

[GregMitch34]

Definitely a 1 of 1...prototype card game never produced. One copy of each of 112 cards. Handcut but PSA and SGC both grade them at usually 5,6,7,8.

[ValKehl]

I think the WaJo-Wool's Bread and Rice-Hendlers Ice Cream cards are 1 of a kind.

WOW!!! Very cool...what's the story with this card?

[ullmandds]

I have never seen any blank back T216's like those auctioned by goodwin this past year before.

If push came to shove...I could destroy one of these millers...rendering the remaining one 1 of a kind!!!!

Checked out your site. Phenomenal collection.

Show your T206 Chase that was autographed by your butcher, Jeff. That's one-of-a-kind.

[E93]

Jay,
Nice card! I knew it was possible, but could not remember seeing one in the last 20 years or so.

Hey comeon, it was Hal's butcher. I would be pleased and excited to display that signed treasure.

[oldjudge]

Here is the only Everybody Cobb

[ValKehl]

I hope these are one-of-a-kind! There is no T214 Gandil in either the PSA or SGC pop reports, and, as I recall, when I won this card in an auction many years ago, it was not yet listed in the Standard Catalog. The T214 WaJo is the only one listed in the combined PSA & SGC pop reports, and I have never seen another. But, oh how I wish the back were complete - if I were ever to have any of my off-condition cards restored, the back of this one would be it.

[joeadcock]

Val

Nice Johnson

[T206Collector]

Several of mine are likely one-of-ones, but only because of the autographs.

Signed T206s are getting a lot of play lately (though truthfully, I never get tired of sharing them); but, I'll try to keep it to signed T201s, like my double-signed double-folder Doyle and Meyers:



And my T201 Leifield, signed by Leifield, and stamped by Jefferson Burdick:

[DixieBaseball]

Some really awesome stuff here guys! I didn't see a T210 represented, so I thought I better bump this to the top and give my favorite set a little love! This card has a lot wrong with the reverse. Surely one of a kind!

[dog*dirt]

I have really enjoyed this thread. I wish I had more to contribute except this T205 that was picked up recently. I did have a similar T205 Stanage but consigned it.

[mrvster]

I love this thread.....I don't care.....I love it!!! ( song comes to mind which I hateLOL).....

I look forward to checking this thread daily....

All of the pieces are MIND BLOWING!

I love this card. We see enough t206 scrap, it is nice to see the T205s in here. I would love to see a t207 scrap also.

[calvindog]

[CMIZ5290]

[h2oya311]

I have a few one-of-a-kinds (all postcards), but I love showing them off. Here's one of my favorites, which is currently making a journey from NJ to MA, freshly entombed by SGC:

....for sheer cool , this wins . Love that script style signature .

[GoldenAge50s]

While it's not a baseball card, it is a 3x6 "card" so I'm including it just for fun!

Back in '81 I attended the end of the "33 Inning Longest Game" on a Providence Journal Press Pass. Just this AM I went up the road to one of the few remaining regular card shows in the RI-MA area & secured the signature of "Walpole Joe" Morgan, who was the Pawsox Mgr at that time.

I now consider my pass "Complete" w/ all the major "players" involved in winning that game.

For those not familiar, I now have the Team owner (Ben Mondor, deceased), the Mgr (Morgan), winning pitcher (Bobby Ojeda), winning run (Marty Barrett), winning RBI (Dave Koza) & the 2 Hall of Famers who played in that game, Wade Boggs & Cal Ripken Jr.

Needless to say, I'm pretty sure this is a unique item & am about 100% certain you won't see another one! It is one of the highlights of all the "stuff" I have!

Thought you might enjoy seeing it!

Very cool Fred. Thanks for sharing. Have you had it authenticated?

It's not real until PSA or JSA say so.

Leave it to you 2 to ask those questions, and you already know the answers! LOL!

I wonder just how many Ben Mondor or Dave Koza exemplars they have tucked away, just waiting for my submission!

PS: ALL sigs were gotten in person except one--and a close friend of Cal's got him for me @ a cost of the price of a stamp! I paid $6.00 this AM for Mgr Joe Morgan.

[calvindog]

[MikeGarcia]

...not only is this one of a kind - this doesn't even exist , per Beckett ''Vintage''

........Obviously one of the late-thirties Goudey Premium Issues ; on the back it says '' Lithographed in Canada'' ; you would think all that would at least point them in the right direction in order to look up the fine details for the label. ( It's a V351 )
.......now I have to go through the hassle of re-submitting plus paying yet another $18 ( they kept the original payment of $18 ) and I have to send Bob Lemke along with the card to show them where in the book to look . And as you know he flies only first class.....

Awesome piece. Congratulations. And I had never heard of this game so now I get to go enjoy reading up on it. Thanks for sharing.

There is a wonderful book written about this game by Dan Barry, an ex-Providence Journal reporter who now works for the NY Times. My sister Carol is a retired Deputy Executive Editor of the Pro-Jo.

Probably other's exist but I have not seen one in full strip form like this one. Even the corners are sharp. Great combination strip with Ruth, Johnson, and Cobb
