T207 Red Cross (known examples)

[ZachS]

I'm still doing some research on Louisiana issues and I've been looking into T207 Anon Fact. 3 and Red Cross.

The Encyclopedia of Baseball Cards mentions that 4 Red Cross backs were discovered in LA in 1983. I found mention of a Lange being discovered sometime after that. And of course we all know about the 2010 Louisiana Find which added 8 more Red Cross backs (including a Lowdermilk). This should bring the grand total to 13 known examples.

While I've found many articles mentioning the first 4 examples and that they were all Chicago players, I haven't found a list of which 4 players were found. I did find evidence of 2 of the original 4 cards. One shows up in VCP and Leon posted a Weaver in a thread here.

Looking for confirmation of the other 2 examples from the original find. If anyone here has any of these please feel free to show them off.

Initial group of four:
1. Russel Blackburne - (PSA 3 in REA on 5/2/10 sold for $9,400.00. Obviously not the same card as the SGC 10 from the Louisiana Find in August 2010)
2. George Weaver (SGC 20) - LEON?
3. ????
4. ????

Discovered sometime between "finds":
5. Frank Lange - (VCP shows an SGC 10 in Mastro Auction on 2/23/07 sold for $4,652.40)

Group of eight from the "Louisiana Find":
6. Louis Lowdermilk (SGC 40)
7. John Adams (SGC 50)
8. Russell Blackburne (SGC 10)
9. William Cunningham (SGC 40)
10. Otto Miller (SGC 40)
11. Red Nelson (SGC 30)
12. Don Carlos Ragan (SGC 30)
13. George Tyler (SGC 30)
