bid but too low
I bid but didn't want it as much as who won it. Still need one for my type set but not sure how much I want to pay. We don't know much about them....

They don't even look like a real card set. Where are they from?

Theyre real, but very very rare, so nothing is really known about them (obviously).
They are blank back very thin stock, 1-1/2" by 2-5/8" machine cut. I picked up the Rommel on eBay about 9 years ago for $5 from a lady who wasnt a collector (she had it pictured on a doily, lol),Its basically NRMT+/MINT. The Hunt lot of 6 sold for $1200, and the Hornsby (lowest grade one known) now at $300. Hunts auction listing http://www.huntauctions.com/online/i...=528&lot_qual= Obviously not many have handled them, not sure who owns any of them now, I sold the Rommel years ago for a few hundred, and I know someone here or on an old message board picked up the Hunts lot. Thats all the info known. Last edited by fkw; 06-11-2011 at 03:23 PM.

Guys, I'll out myself on this one. I was the winning bidder and, interestingly enough, I have concerns about the date of the cards. For some reason the sepia toning on the cards kind of concerns me, but I still bid and am still happy to have the card. I also have the Sisler, Maranville and Williams cards that are pictured in Frank's scan. These are the exact cards in the scan. They are not duplicates.
I will also be putting up cards on Net54 and eBay later, not to offset the cost of the card, but to free up additional money to pay off pending deals I have with other board members.

I doubt it because of the consistency of the pictures.

The paper is thin enough to be an ad piece/poster:
