1914 Colonels with George Weiss and other Pre-Rookie RPPC's
Recent pick up which I am told, corroborated by a foremost rookie collector, is George Weiss. He (far left in regular clothes) made the HOF as an executive in 1971. It is my understanding there are at least a few of these known. Would love to see some other pre-rookie HOF rppc's if anyone has any they would like to share. It's interesting seeing our HOF'ers in their very early days.

Leon -
Nice grab! I have the same New Haven Colonials PC as yours (one of the few known examples). I'll try not to hijack this thread with all the pre-rookie HOF RPPC's in my collection...but here's one that I've only shown once before, so it might be new to a few folks. Also, along the same lines, it's a postcard of a baseball HOF executive really early in his career. Warren Giles - coach of the 1918 Moline HS Basketball Team:

Waner All Star RPPC
Quote:
Regarding your RPPC with Paul Waner as a minor league All Star - do you think that is brother Lloyd to the far right of the photo? I have attached another RPPC from about 3 years earlier then your card, that has almost all of these same guys. What do you think? Rick Last edited by rickalaska; 08-07-2017 at 11:53 PM.

George Weiss HOF
Quote:
Leon, Here is an earlier George Weiss (holding bat at left) that I found recently - I would guess High School age around 1910. Rick Last edited by rickalaska; 08-07-2017 at 11:48 PM.
