This Diamond Stars of Rogers Hornsby has a nice writeup on the back.

Brian, you have the most fantastic beater collection on this sub. There should be an award for that, maybe a dented, rusty, tin cup trophy with a missing handle.

Thanks Phil. Maybe someday I will track down this T206 Chase Holding Trophy card, or perhaps one that has even more damage in the trophy area.

It's good to see that sometimes even Lionel Carter had to take what he could find in some issues.

Back when his collection came to auction, I remember reading/hearing that Lionel had a group of extras he had set aside for trading, left over from the days when he was actively collecting. I imagine a large percentage of the really low graded cards with Lionel Carter on the label were from this trader stash, because as many of us know, Mr. Carter was quite the stickler for condition.

Here's mine. I wouldn't trade or sell it for anything. Sure, there's other Fred Snodgrass t205's out there, but this one appealed to me. Somehow, it survived.
