Here's the second mystery card. It is sepia on cream, measures about 1-15/16" x 1-17/32" and is blank-backed. There is some lettering at top-right, under the smutz. Could be CD MA or CD PA. Is this part of one of those poster thingies that has various sized player pictures? |

Looks like a Plows Candy card to me.... |

That is identical to the E300 Plow's Candy, but why is it so small? |

I'm guessing a super small reprint. Look at the link I provided at the bottom of my post, an E300 Mathewson reprint but also like the one above is smaller than the original. It is not as small but it does prove that there are E300 reprints out there and the printers can make them any size they want. |

Since I sold it a couple years back. I only have a single picture of the 1909 sheet, I put a red square around the Mathewson picture on sheet. |

Cool, you have a picture. Thanks Brian Much better. I used to have closeup pictures of all of them, but left them on my old computer (which I gave away) and forgot to save them. Dumb mistake, I lost many pictures of unusual/uncataloged cards. |

Was co-produced in the 1960's, by a couple of very prominent collectors from that time frame, Ray Billbrough and Ed Lotz. It was part of a series of sheets that were called The Classic Cards. |

I have one of these sheets. Purchased on eBay a couple of years ago for ~$40. The seller noted that he had a bunch that came from a factory in the 60's. |

Interesting. I have only seen them 1 time in 25 years, never seen any besides the 1 on eBay (seller had 2 others that were sold sametime non-eBay). I cant see why they would make it in the 1960's without Cobb and Wagner, and have players/teams date so perfectly to early 1909? And why no identification/copyright/printer info?? Oh well. |

Well, I guess there is at least 5. Its funny how I can get 50,000+ hits on my old site in 3 years, with this sheet pictured, and not a single person emails me with info. Yet it is pictured here and 3-4 people have info in a couple hours. I remember when this sheet was in a post on the old (preNet54) message board (at time of original eBay sale) and no one seen or knew what the heck it was. Oh well learn something new everyday. |

The Cobb and Wagner cards were in the 2nd series. Here is the front and back of the Cobb with a checklist. I picked this up at a Michigan show in 1975 (when I was 10). |

Here's something from this forum about this sheet. Unfortunately, the listing can't be viewed now and I can't remember who the seller was. I do remember he left no doubt in his description that it was from the 60's, as Patrick and Brian have confirmed. |

Perhaps the sheet was originally printed in 1909 and then reprinted in the 1960s with a checklist on the back. |
