what a card Jeff!!

one-of-a-kind cards
 

I have a few one-of-a-kinds (all postcards), but I love showing them off. Here's one of my favorites, which is currently making a journey from NJ to MA, freshly entombed by SGC:

1937 SD Padres Team PC w/ Ted Williams:

absolute wow
 

....for sheer cool , this wins . Love that script style signature .

Longest Game
 

While it's not a baseball card, it is a 3x6 "card" so I'm including it just for fun!

Back in '81 I attended the end of the "33 Inning Longest Game" on a Providence Journal Press Pass. Just this AM I went up the road to one of the few remaining regular card shows in the RI-MA area & secured the signature of "Walpole Joe" Morgan, who was the Pawsox Mgr at that time.

I now consider my pass "Complete" w/ all the major "players" involved in winning that game.

For those not familiar, I now have the Team owner (Ben Mondor, deceased), the Mgr (Morgan), winning pitcher (Bobby Ojeda), winning run (Marty Barrett), winning RBI (Dave Koza) & the 2 Hall of Famers who played in that game, Wade Boggs & Cal Ripken Jr.

Needless to say, I'm pretty sure this is a unique item & am about 100% certain you won't see another one! It is one of the highlights of all the "stuff" I have!

Thought you might enjoy seeing it!

Very cool Fred. Thanks for sharing. Have you had it authenticated? ;)

It's not real until PSA or JSA say so. :D

Leave it to you 2 to ask those questions, and you already know the answers! LOL!

I wonder just how many Ben Mondor or Dave Koza exemplars they have tucked away, just waiting for my submission!:)

PS: ALL sigs were gotten in person except one--and a close friend of Cal's got him for me @ a cost of the price of a stamp! I paid $6.00 this AM for Mgr Joe Morgan.

1 of 1 (at least according to PSA and SGC)

But They Have '' Vintage'' In Their Name.....
 

http://imagehost.vendio.com/a/204295...EA_NEW_001.JPG


...not only is this one of a kind - this doesn't even exist , per Beckett ''Vintage''

........Obviously one of the late-thirties Goudey Premium Issues ; on the back it says '' Lithographed in Canada'' ; you would think all that would at least point them in the right direction in order to look up the fine details for the label. ( It's a V351 )
.......now I have to go through the hassle of re-submitting plus paying yet another $18 ( they kept the original payment of $18 ) and I have to send Bob Lemke along with the card to show them where in the book to look . And as you know he flies only first class.....

Awesome piece. Congratulations. And I had never heard of this game so now I get to go enjoy reading up on it. Thanks for sharing.

There is a wonderful book written about this game by Dan Barry, an ex-Providence Journal reporter who now works for the NY Times. My sister Carol is a retired Deputy Executive Editor of the Pro-Jo.

Probably other's exist but I have not seen one in full strip form like this one. Even the corners are sharp. Great combination strip with Ruth, Johnson, and Cobb

I don't own one, but CardTarget.com shows others that have sold.

Killer Cabinet. Great stuff.

Jeff...amazing card & I would have to agree with you on it possibly being a "one of a kind". FYI, do you know how many subjects are in that issue and is there a Babe Ruth?

Joe T.

I think this one is pretty unique. I have shown this before, but I enjoy showing it. Dockman and Sons produced cards of boats, soldiers, animals, and baseball players. If you look at the back of this card, you see a checklist for animals.

When you turn the card over, you would expect to see a lion, zebra or a monkey. You would be very surprised to see what is there.....Honus Wagner.

Still going...
 

The Wag's is neat and that Cobb that Jeff posted is a loner for sure. Never seen that one before...

Nice cards by many...

I have the corresponding Lobert.
http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/...seca27b33.jpeghttp://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/...s43e817a2.jpeg

Nice Lobert. I have also seen a McGraw, but no others.
I wonder why your is an e102 on the slab and not Dockman since Dockman made the animal cards?

Here are a few wrong backs...

I wonder if all 3 of our wrong back menagerie cards came from the same sheet.
They all have what looks to be the exact same off centered positioning of the back.

I don't think there any other Schlei type 1's but I could be wrong:

http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps95972be8.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m...ps74809fac.jpg

I would consider it an e92, all the menagaries are believed to be. I bought it slabbed already, and have no need to get the slip changed.

I do believe there are others (as shown by Leon) but I have only seen one of each player that I have come across. Other collectors would know more, but that would be for another thread.

I'm not aware of another Ju-Ju Drums container that has survived.

Ju-Ju
 

Wow...thanks Brian for sharing the Ju-Ju Drums container, which I have never seen before. I guess they would be even more impossible to obtain than the incredibly scare Ju-Ju cards.

Adam - That Joe Sport Stamp, most likely, is from a similar newspaper publication as my Vander Meer sport stamp. Vandy was playing for Nashville only in 1936, and appeared in the Atlanta-Georgian newspaper publication with this sport stamp which looks just like your Chicago-American Joe sports stamp. (Mine is paper thin)[/QUOTE]

Great item! Those sport stamp sets are in need of further research.

........

3 of these 4 are uniquely known, as far as I am aware...

This is a great thread, do not let it die!!!

I love the Jim Thorpe card Mr. Luckey. One of my all time favorite athletes.

I have heard people say: "Too bad there is no Joe Jackson in the T206 Southern League Run" ... I just tell them : "There is, it is a true 1/1, and I am the owner"!

"It would would take a very large offer to pry this one away" ...

My blank-backed T206 Donovan was only one known when authenticated by SGC at the 2013 National (and since auctioned via Robert Edwards). Assume it was a test print run that ended up as scrap.

I don't own the Just So Burkett any longer, but I still have the Newsboy John L. Sullivan.
