B-Unc Felts - Real???

I am not sure I have seen those players in the case before? If not, then it is unlikely they are reprints, imo. That being said, I always take into strong consideration when someone says something they are selling may not be good, because they are usually correct. Not always though . My gut tells me they are questionable....but would need to see in person to be sure. (true that some detail is lacking, especially McBride.....so ....caveat emptor)

This is interesting too. Here is a scan of another McBride that I had saved. They are actually different images if you look at the details. It really makes you wonder how these were produced and how many were produced.

I guess my question would be why is the pennant at the bottom not complete on only the ones that were just sold. Out of all the examples shown, personal, Legendary etc, the pennants seem complete where here they are just sort of blobs with names. Maybe just a different version but I would say that is what strikes me as odd. Not saying good or bad just pointing it out.

That is true. The names aren't pennants, they are just markers. Maybe two different sets?

I have a Chief Meyers felt, with the pennants. I've seen 20-30 of these over the years but don't remember ever seeing any without the pennants at the bottom. Also, the artwork on the player poses seems a bit more detailed on the ones with the pennants.

These are like the E-91s of felts. All the catcher poses are slightly different but look to be from the same master image. Differences in sleeve wrinkles, etc. Same for the first basemen.

A grand seems like a lot of money for a Heinie Wagner.

Here's my list of the ones I've seen or seen pics of. The ones from this week make 15 different players, plus 3 dupes that are in different colors.

Ainsmith red (FKW, now mine)
Ainsmith green (LegAuc 5/12)
Bender (according to FKW)
Chase purple (eBay 2/15)
Cobb red (FKW)
Herzog green (LegAuc 5/12)
Hooper red (eBay 2/15)
Lajoie blue (LegAuc 5/12)
Lange (acc to Jim Sexton)
Lord blue (LegAuc 5/12)
Matty green (LegAuc 5/12)
Meyers red (Jim Sexton)

Richie green (Jim Sexton)

That is a pretty good point. There isn't just one Wagner and there's no team identifier.
