What the?

[rdwyer]

Can someone identify these cards? The cards where the name is partial, I need to know who they are. The Strip Cards, the set designation. Also, what kind of card is the last one? TIA

Al Bridwell E98 I believe for the bottom card

[rdwyer]

Thanks so much, I was just gonna post that I found them. With the exception of the last one.

The Wright is a 1926 W512. I believe the Scott is as well.

The Cooper is a 1920 W516-1

Best regards,

Joe

I think they are as follows, but may be off on the strips.

top row = w516-1, w512, w512
middle row = lobert (e90/92/etc/depending on back), w520, w516-1
bottom = bridwell (e98)

Depending on the back, I may be interested in the Lobert.

Ok, I'm game-y.

From top left:

W516 Cooper (there are different versions...people who care will know which one it is)

W512 Everett Scott

W512 Glenn Wright

E90-1 or E92 (Dockman, Croft's Candy, Croft's Cocoa, Nadja) or E101 or E102, E105 Mello Mint, E106 American Caramel, D303 (General, Mother's), or T216 (Kotto, Mino, Virginia). All share same front, would need to see back.

W520 Stanley Covaleskie HOF

W516 Heinie Groh

E98 Al Bridwell

The Lobert is a 1909-11 American Caramel (E90-1). Guess I lucked out on this one.

I also picked up a bunch of crap cards.

15 Zeenuts (1914 & 1915)
and these:

Some of us live for crap cards. And many Zeenut collectors settle/resign/anticipate nothing better. Congrats!

I also picked up 2 complete 1965 sets.

Gomer Pyle & McHale's Navy. Both are nr/mt sets.

[rdwyer]

I noticed that there is only one graded Bridwell RED (PSA7). What can I expect to get for the one I got?

[rdwyer]

Once again, the only other Red Bridwell I can find is:

1910 E98 - Red Al Bridwell "Black Swamp Find" PSA 7 NM

So what can I expect to get for mine? TIA

[x2drich2000]

I'm far from an expert on the e98's, but the BSF red Bridwells have sold several times from around $650-$1k depending on the grade (PSA pop report shows 18 BSF Red Bridwells graded psa 7, and there is at least one SGC 88). Prior to the BSF, it was a hard combination, but now, not so much, unless you are looking for a low grade example. In addition, someone just looking to build a basic set can easily find a nicer card with one of the other background colors. With that said, based on the condition at auction, I think it could range from anywhere from $15 to maybe $50 if a master set collectors doesn't want to pay for a BSF example.

x2drich2000: What does BSF mean? And I could only find one card on PSA. Can you help me find where you found the others?

[x2drich2000]

BSF = Black Swamp Find

If you look at the entry right below the one you posted you will see see the results from the Black Swamp Find. Also, you can look through past auctions on the heritage website to see all the cards sold. Heritage has/is handling the original sale of all the Black Swamp Find cards.

DJ

[rdwyer]

So, I'm correct. There is only one graded Red Bridwell. (PSA7 BSF) Mine should be worth something because it the only other known.

[x2drich2000]

no, there are 18 different red bridwell's from the Black Swamp Find graded psa 7 (I think at least 1 has been crossed over to SGC). Below are links to a few Heritage has already sold.

Cert 2225

Cert 2224

Cert 2229

Cert 2230

Cert 2240

My mistake, I thought the 18 were other players.

There were a large quantity of a lot of players in the Black Swamp Find. I think 18 was probably around the average for a player, maybe even more. It was an incredible find for sure. I met the family and they seemed like some very nice folks.
