The red-haired stepchild of memorabilia. They came several to a strip. The kids would tear or cut them -sometimes evenly along the dotted lines. I like em, well... The R346s not so much. |

I like them as well. I've really never cared what the masses like or dislike. I like them. many are very tuff to find in grade 4 and up. Let alone find at all. |

Strip card is a colloquial term to refer to cards that were sold in multicard strips or sheets, with the intent that the purchaser cut them down into separate cards. |

Thanks Jeff. I found this card laying in some guys items at a show back in the early ninties. Didn't require a degree in medicine to know I had to have it.....it was raw. And yes, I had it entombed much later. |

I rarely post in this section of the board, but I thought I'd add my two cents. I don't collect strip cards much, but they are significant in that during their period of issue, kids had fewer options for obtaining cardboard pictures of baseball players. Some strip card issues contain important images, as with the W516-1 card showing Babe Ruth pitching left handed and identifying him as a pitcher for the Yankees. Some strip cards contain cartoonish figures, but others look terrific and have dynamic (even psychadelic) colors, like the W515 set. As with all early baseball issues, it is only a matter of time before the market catches up with them. This is particularly so as compiling complete sets gets more difficult with the passage of time, and other cards get expensive for most collectors. |
