Default Holsum research questions

Please help me with my research of the D327 Holsum Bread set. Two questions:

1) Can anyone confirm the existence of a Type 1 Holsum card that does NOT have an e135-style photo; i.e., fake horizon/washed-out background?
The closest I've come is the card of Dave Davenport, who was part of a large lot sold in Heritage awhile back. That card was graded as 1920 by SGC, but so was the entire 63 card lot, I believe, and I don't necessarily trust their attention to accuracy (they likely missed on a couple of others). No back scan was provided to confirm.

2) Can anyone confirm that one or more of these subjects can be found with a Type 1 back?:

A: Bagby; Donovan; Foster; Gowdy; Griffith; Judge; Peckinpaugh; Pfeffer; Rixey; Ruth; Thomas;Toney;Whitted. These have been confirmed with Type 2.

B: Daubert, Doak; Jennings; Maranville; McInnis; Meadows; Miller O; Pipp; Schupp; Williams F; Witt, Wood. I have seen these with e121-80 or other related backs, but not Holsum.

Thanks for any help, and confirming scans would be very much appreciated.

Hey Todd
I am sure there are some out there but how many collectors do you think actively collect the set rather than just a type card, HOF'er, or some other particular subset? I remember a few discussions on them in the past but don't remember the participants. Good luck in the hunt. Sorry I can't help with the questions as I never collected the set.

Default Hi Leon,

I don’t expect many or maybe anyone to be collecting the Holsum set(s) per se, including me, but thought that there are enough type and team collectors here that it is worthwhile to ask them to check their holdings to see if they might answer my questions at least in part. I have been contacted by one member who provided a scan of a Type 2 Holsum I had not confirmed, so I already consider my post a success although I would love to see more.

I am trying to determine the size and extent of Type 1 and Type 2 Holsum checklists. I have confirmed 79 subjects for Type 1, although a couple of those are based only on front scans and TPG slabs, and thus are only semi-confirmed. There really should be more, including Babe Ruth, yet at least thus far an argument can be made that the ad back’s claim of “80 different to the set” looks pretty accurate. There may have been multiple printings of Type 1 that takes the total over 80, as it appears there were at least two printings of Type 2.

I also am somewhat fixated, as you know, on Felix Mendelsohn’s involvement in creating early B&W sets. Because he is very likely the creator of the 1917 E135-like sets and those very poses are used again not only in Holsum but also other 1920-21 sets, I stay on the hunt for information. That is one reason I am interested in whether Type 1 used exclusively 1917 photos, although I would add that Type 2 also borrowed at least some Mendelsohn poses from m101-6 (e.g. Speaker and Wingo). Finally and for purposes of discussion, I would note that I have seen some collectors claim that Type 2 Holsum is more readily found than Type 1. I have confirmed only 54 Type 2 backs, far less than Type 1, and although I don’t follow all sales or pops (there may be multiples of these Type 2s that create a larger population), I have not seen that, and would ask others to describe their experiences. Thanks for looking.

Default Holsum

Hi Todd, I wish I could help, but I only have 2 Holsum's. The Morton is incorrectly identified as a 1921.

Todd, I have confirmed checklisted 76 different Holsum Type 1's and ALL have the E135 style images.

I have confirmed about the same number of Type 2's that you have but those are a mix of images from the E135 and updated photos (with backgrounds).

Thanks guys. I'll look more closely later tonight, but I believe the only three "semi-confirmed" Type 1s I see are the Davenport already mentioned, Graney and Pratt. Davenport is the only one of the three that does not use the 1917 pose, so he may be a Type 2, although his presence in the Holsum set(s) at all is kind of puzzling so we shall see (hopefully someone can post a back scan of that card). The Graney scan I have for Type 2 shows a longer dash between his position and team name than the front scan I have for what I believe is Type 1, so they are at least two different printings if not different Types. The Pratt has a 1920 label on the slab and shows a 1917 pose, so it seems likely that if this is instead Type 2, any Holsum card of him in Type 1 would use the same pose; i.e. the issuer would not have first used an updated or different photo and then reverted back to the 1917 pic in Type 2. Still, that does not confirm he was in fact included in Type 1.

Even if folks can't address my specific questions, I always enjoy seeing scans, so like Rick, feel free to post 'em if you got 'em.

Todd, Davenport is Type 2, I have never seen this card as a Type 1, and don't expect to as he seems to be from the same group as Harry Covaleskie (w/ background) and John Henry (w/ background) that were new to Holsum Type 2, Herpolsheimers, early W575-1 blank back, and Standard Biscuit. (and likely Shotwell if/when more of those come to light). These guys were all dropped before any E121 sets were made. I have not confirmed these 3 w/ all those backs bu they seem to be part of a grouping.

Pratt and Graney are both found in Type 1 with their E135 style fronts. I have not confirmed Pratt as a Type 2 but Graney is found in both Type 1 and Type 2 (same image)

I'll address your specific questions...

#1) NO, all have E135 front images

#2) A: From your list I have only confirmed Peckinpaugh (interestingly his name is spelled CORRECTLY & then in later E121/Holsum Type 2 & the like printings they mispelled it Peckinbaugh),

Default Thanks Rhett

Have you seen the back of the to confirm for certain that it is a Type 2? I understand your reasoning and don't disagree, but the others you cite also had a Type 1 version that used the 1917 pose. Davenport has no 1917 card, which points to him either not having a Type 1 card (likely) or being the sole Type 1 card to use a non-1917 pose (unlikely). I will assume he is Type 2 going forward, and hope to see a front/back scan combo to put the matter to rest.

If Davenport is Holsum Type 2, then there are 55 confirmed of that Type by my count. Of that total, I only show the following 16 Type 2 cards with a background in the pose; i.e., an updated or different photo from the 1917 E135 cards:

Alexander, Bodie, Cobb, Coveleskie, Davenport (assuming he is Type 2), Evers, Henry, Hooper, Hornsby, Killefer, Lewis, Speaker, Stock, Strunk, Wambganss, and Wingo.

Oddly, the Coveleskie and Henry cards were changed even though neither really belonged in either Holsum set, having already played their final MLB games more than a year before the earlier set was printed. Instead of removing these outdated players, the publisher granted them an additional appearance with a new pose. Also, Wambsganss was changed from a correct, 1917 photo in Type 1 to an incorrect photo of Fritz Coumbe in Type 2--the same incorrect photo Mendelsohn had used for Wamby in his m101-4 set (hmmm...)

In any event, does anybody else have other Holsum players showing a background other than those on my above list?

I can add a scan of my Holsum Schalk and a link to Zach's great site where he was keeping track of confirmed cards, though it might not be up to date:

My only two. Pretty sure Wambganss has two different photos in this set, one the Type 1 and the other variation Type 2

Todd, I owned the Davenport until recently. I add nobody to my confirmed list unless I have seen them in hand or have 100% concrete evidence which back is present.

Thanks Brian, I have seen Zach's list and note it has some names with question marks. If those get confirmed, I'll be happy to add them. Frankly, there are lot of potential additions out there, especially a Type 1 Babe Ruth.

Thanks Dave. I believe yours is the only Wamby Type 1 that I have seen. Type 2 is the aforementioned error/mis-identification of Fritz Coumbe as Wambsganss. If there is a different Type 2 I have not seen it. A shame they didn't use the m101-6 pose, which I like alot.

Thanks Rhett. I can put that one to rest. He would have been quite the outlier as a Type 1, and I suppose one could surface, but that seems very unlikely.

Here is the list of Type 1 Holsums I believe exist. Any comments and additions welcome:
NOTE: I sometimes just used the player's common name for my list rather than the exact name on the card, for example Sam Rice instead of E.C. Rice. I can clean that up, but didn't want people thinking they might have a rare variation just because their cards showed a different spelling. I will try and note changes in caption from Type 1 to Type 2 in other posts.

You can add Everett Scott to the type 2 list. I sent a scan to Todd today. I’ve had it for years, bought it on the old board I believe.

Always appreciate board members chiming in with good info (all in this thread). It is interesting how so many of us concentrate on different things. I like the Holsums but have never tried the set (as I usually gravitate to type cards). Thanks for sharing, guys!!
This Hornsby was in my last collection. Hope the new owner enjoys it.

Sorry I'm late to the party. I never have time to slow down anymore with the kids always involved in something (right now it's baseball... much better than soccer).

You are 100% certain of the Type 1's and 2's on your list? If so, I will update the website accordingly. I have many discrepancies when comparing my list to yours... granted I was going off what little information I could find at the time.

Jacques Fournier

Walter Schang
Charles Stengel
Milton Stock

-Card I have listed as Type 2 only (also listed on your list as Type 1):
J. Carlisle Smith

Urban Faber

Yes I am certain, I owned all but 5-6 of the Type 1’s and about 75-80% of the Type 2’s I listed up until very recently.

-Cards not on my list at all (you have listed as Type 2's):

"And you're certain of the ones in red? I had a few of those listed as "?" on my list."

I may have to change my assessment of Evers, whose confirmation I can only find for Standard Biscuit, at least for the moment. The others I have confirmed; Eddie Collins (Huggins and Scott); Eddie Foster (Sterling); Rogers Hornsby w/e135 front (Legendary auctions);Walter Johnson (Goodwin); Tris Speaker (Bagger’s); and Ivy B. Wingo (Goodwin)
