Hey Folks,
After about 50 posts I think we should start another pick up thread. If you posted your pics on the previous one, in the last few days, and want to post here again, please do so. I am not trying to delete anyone's little gems or take away their few minutes in the sun with their new kids... ALSO, as per the thread about these pick up threads if you post cards at more than 1x they might be deleted and asked to re-post at normal size. This is fair warning and nothing personal. I recently sold the FBH Ewing and had to replace it with something....so .....this isn't a pretty card but it's rare and with only 3 known from the set and not much of another opportunity to get one...felt it was time....and it's the 1st minor league set known...

I figured by the third pick up thread, I could post one of typically off topic purchases.



Rare 1st edition photography book signed and inscribed twice (cover and inside) by the famous German photographer Peter Lindbergh. The book is monster sized, weighing perhaps 40 pounds. Interestingly, the inside inscription gives the date, city and street address where he signed the book.

My 5th and 6th Parkhursts. For any of you wondering, what the heck is so special about those primitive little cards? 1951 was the first year since well before the war that Canada put out hockey cards, and the 51-52 Parkhursts had just about evryone's rookie card in it (all through the 40s, '50 and '51). And there were some pretty important players--Howe, Sawchuk, Harvey to name three. America had put out almost no hockey cards (and the ones they did produce are strangely unpopular--not being Canadian!). There were a few hockey players in the Sport Kings set from '33, and Berk-Ross put out a grab bag of sportsmen (very hard to find), also in '51, including one the Canadians missed--Bill Durnan, who had already retired (I think)! Anyway, many 51-52 Parkhursts are very attractive in a primitive way, with blue and lavender backgrounds, and the little action drawings. They are blank backed.

One in excellent condition:



and 5 in non-excellent condition. If anybody happens to find an upper-right hand corner that's brown on the front and has a "B" on the back, it's mine. Thanks.

Okay this isn't baseball related but it is still an interesting item that I picked up recently. It is a proof from the S-2 "Domestic Animals" set.

Picked up these four full color prints along with 6 other from famous baseball teams across America. Dates to around 1870. They have a lithographers mark of "Roylance & Purcell". Interesting that the Red Stockings player is also holding a Red Ball.

I also was able to aquire this week the last few items out of the Tony Mullane estate that will probably ever be offered. They just resurfaced after a few years of laying in storage in a Lake County Illinois Guardians Office. I will try and get some pics of the Mullane stuff up later.

Rhys- What you have are four pages removed from a ca. 1870 Peck and Snyder Sporting Goods Catalog. While I've owned a couple of different versions of it, it sure looks like somebody just took one apart for the hand colored illustrations. Those were not prints issued by themselves. They are beautiful but where is the rest of the catalog?

Barry, I appreciate the information, but I know the source of these prints, but it is incorrect that they were cut out. The book is published on regular stock paper and bound together with a glue binding. After the book was published they inserted several color prints on different paper stock and blank backed which are 100% NOT BOUND in the book by glue, but held together loosely with a secondary string and were intended to be removed and used the same way supplements were intended for secondary display. There is no difference between these items and many other items which we call baseball cards today and are cataloged as such. I still have the rest of the book to verify what I have said here. These absolutely are Prints which were Intended to be taken out of the book and displayed.

Sorry, my computer made me post this same message twice. I have the catalog but the string was falling apart and the first few pages and cover were pretty ratty. There is no lithographers mark on any of the other color pages which are for sporting goods, but these prints have a distinct mark of a lithographer which is completely distinct from the rest of the color inserts, and on different paper stock than the rest of the catalog.

As I recall the Peck and Snyder catalog I had which matches those prints was from 1873. The size of the pages was roughly 5" x 7" (just a guess) and each of the images were hand colored and were on relatively cheap paper stock. A color lithograph would be printed and most probably a higher quality paper stock would be used. My catalog was string bound, and you can see that the images you posted were too. If these are in fact on better stock paper and not hand colored, then they are more significant and I have never seen them before. Nevertheless, they were removed from some binding. I still have in my collection a 16" x 22" hand colored Peck and Snyder sporting goods advertising poster that was included in the 1869 Haney Guide, which they printed themselves for the first time that year. The poster was issued folded up and glued to the inside front cover. It was meant to be removed and placed in the window of a store. It is quite beautiful and rare. Your pieces are certainly intriguing if they were made to be removed, and undeniably beautiful at that.

Now that I look at your prints more closely, I do recognize each of the four images as identical to what I had, but I do not remember having the border around each of the players. What is the size of them? They are really intriguing.

The prints from my 1871 Peck and Snyder(making the prints probably 1870 teams) measure exactly 4.5X7 inches and the paper is much higher quality than the text of the book. I do not know for sure how to tell if these were hand colored or not, but they are 100% machine cut and simply held into the rest of the book by the bound string. If you remove the string then the prints fall out for display, but the rest of the book is held together with glue.

Thanks for the extra info you have given me on this item.

Rhys

As you describe them they are unknown to me and may even be one of a kind. I love them. I won't even ask you if they are available, because I would guess they are not.
