Yes, 1947-48 I believe. happy to post these, but the only way I can is one at a time on the printer, another way is from Smart Phone to my email and then to this site. Not to sharp on computer stuff, so if you advise, I will listen. Thank you, douglas

I assume your printer doesn't have a scanner?

Another way would be to take a picture, or 2-3, then upload them to your computer then use the "manage attachments" below your new post and upload them to the site.

Not sure the age of your computer and if it has a photo option, but there are many on the internet for free to use if you don't?

You'll have to ask what other's use/think is the best however.

Good luck. :)

I think if you could just post a typed list of what you have, that would be informative, you don't have to show every card. If you could just post a picture of one card that isn't supposed to be available with square corners that would show an example of what you have.

In my set(square corners) is Vern Stephens and 9 others that are listed in the second set but are not really there. So , my question is trying to understand if my squares are such a late issue, would Stephens be wearing a St Louis Brown uniform

Before I begin, let me state that this is an old thread (from early 2009........I can still remember that year as though it was yesterday....).

This is for prosperity and for Ted Z.... The following eBay item just ended:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=230415942970

It was for the complete 24 card '47 Bond Bread imposter cards/set (22 baseball + Joe Louis & Primo Carnera) which were unearthed by Dave Festberg. The seller stated he purchased the set in 1990 from B&J as noted in the SCD article. The card backs were the beige variety not the white version.

I passed on bidding on this item but was surprised to see it only sold for $102 (Nr/Mt set). I have always greatly appreciated everything I have learned (and continue learning) about this set from Ted Z., but at the end of his dissertations it always makes my head hurt. Plus, there is always the possibility that it is in fact a reprinted set. Guess, others feel the same way.

Lovely Day...

I am with you on the head hurting and I just got into this a week ago. My cards truly were found in an old scrapbook I have from around Cleveland Indian World Series time (1948). All my neighborhood was collecting these cards, so I know they are original and not reprinted. My dilemma is why are the same pictures in the first set of 48 in my set of 24. Also, my picture of Vern Stephens is in a St Louis Browns uniform of 1947, and in 48 and later he played for Red Sox. In my eye, when I look at the back of my pics, they look white, considering the age.

The fact that Stephens appears in a 1947 uniform in a later card is not an anachronism. If he'd been in a Red Sox uni it would disprove an issue date from before the trade.

As they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words". Since DiMaggio isn't supposed to be available with square corners, maybe you could take a pic of just that card.

I posted the Di Maggio and just think, there are 11 more square corners...... this is too much fun,,,, I think that they think, that I am full of it.......The only thing that ruins this whole thing is the 10 year old that scotch taped the corners in the scrapbook... I am still hopeful my In Law can save these corners....

I'm sorry, I just now realized that the cards with the tape marks previously posted were yours. Well, maybe the expert on these, who also collected them when they came out, will have an answer.

Ted, your own list in post #7 doesn't include Walker Cooper.

My list in Post #7 applies ONLY to the 1947 BOND BREAD cards (Rounded corners) set.

If you go back and read the posts in this thread, you will realize that the Square-cornered set is NOT exactly the same issue.

Sorry, I did not respond to you on this earlier, but I was in Cooperstown these past 6 days.
