WOW! Talk about star power.
 

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

I'm confused as to what sheet you are talking about, but I'm glad you revived this thread.

I have only one that is worth showing... complete with a few bb gun holes, back when cards were to be played with.

I have this item, but I can’t get it to upload.

In the mid-1970s I broke about 8 cases of 1964 Topps Giants. I sold complete sets for $2.00, and later, $2.40, through classified ads in SCD for a couple years. I got them from a guy named Merv Williams, whom I believe had only one leg, and for some reason I think he may have lived in Mountain View, CA, but I might be confusing that location with someone else.

Merv had a bunch of old unopened stuff. My buddy Carson Ritchey once told me of a time he visited Merv, and they'd walk through stacks of unopened stuff, and Carson would pick up a box at random, and it would be 1966 Topps high number vending, or some other treasure. I had always wanted to visit Merv just to see what all he had.

Anyway, the cases I got from Merv were similar to Topps "cut" cases from the 1980s - a bunch of cards packed into one big box, with no smaller packaging. Just bulk cards. The cases of 1964 Giants had about 4,400 cards each. Every one of them had about half as many of the 7 short prints as the rest of the cards, and Mantle was the most plentiful.

Because of the short print problem, I also offered 50 different cards for $1.00 (plus 40 cents postage,) and eventually, I sold some lots of 1,000 assorted cards. There were other cards that seemed more plentiful, like Kaline, Bailey, Radatz, Billy Williams, and a few others, while several were less common but not scarce, like Ellsworth, Hinton, Romano, and Ford. So when I sold my leftovers in those 1,000 card lots, the distribution was quite poor, something like 100 Mantles and 50 each of 18 other cards.

I did find a guy through SCD who would sell me extra short prints so I could fill out more sets, and that worked great at first, but as he bumped his prices, the economics made that situation less attractive, and eventually Merv ran out of cases.

Anyway, I can attest with absolute certainty that the 8 cases (35,000 cards in unopened cases) definitely had a short print situation going on. Whether that situation existed throughout the entire run, I have no idea.

He is referring to the 1967 Topps sheet in post #44 on page one, he is saying the accompanying sheet to that one has the the four rows starting with Alston double printed so that all of the cards are equally printed on the full 264 card double sheet.

thanks, Jeff W

Cutting them into individual proofs is contrary to this thread...

You have four Tidewater Tides promo sheets on your ebay site, nothing besides that that would qualify for inclusion in this thread. The two sheets you posted on this thread do not seem to be available on either your personal site or on ebay, and neither are the "hundreds of sheets" you referenced.

Evidently you are instead cutting the sheets up, presumably so that you can get a good opinion from the opinion sellers. Considering the entire point of this thread, I would say that if this were a conversation about religion, then you would qualify as a blasphemer.

1933 GOUDEY World Series (10th) sheet......
 

Trying to put together a SET of these GOUDEY cards in 1933 was quite a frustrating experience. Certain lower number cards were not available in the Spring
and Summer of 1933. The 10th sheet was printed in mid October, and these cards were issued from November to December 1933. The bios on the backs of
them reflect the 1933 World Series between the NY Giants and Washington. I have arranged the cards from my set to exactly simulate this 24-card sheet **

This diagram of the back of 10th sheet cards reveals the story of when 15 (of the 22) mysterious lower numbered cards where finally issued.

Card #'s 97, 98, 99, 128, 129, and 142 were printed on the 9th sheet. And, of course #106 (Lajoie) was printed on the 1934 GOUDEY Hi # sheet that was
issued in the Summer of 1934 which finally completed this 240-card set.

T'was a clever marketing trick that Goudey played on collectors in order to sell a lot of cards in 1933....but, it was also a very "mean" trick on the collectors.


** Note....In the simulated sheet arrangement I mistakenly switched the cards of Manush (#107) and Kuhel (#108). This will be corrected.

uncut sheets
 

Doug the thread says "Let's see some uncut sheets....any sheet from 1887 - 1967". It does not say anything about what I intend to do with them. I apologize if you are looking to buy uncut sheets but the thread does not say what uncut sheets are you selling. I am just following the thread and wanted to show some of the sheets I have that are still in sheet form. I am sorry if this does not interest you. Thanks, Jeff W

A thread about uncut sheets would obviously involve people who enjoy uncut sheets, and PROBABLY those same people would be in favor of NOT CUTTING THEM UP.

But I understand your point.

On a vegan website that I frequent, I'm about to post pictures of a wild chicken that runs around my neighborhood. I'm also going to post a link to my website (FriedChickenByDoug.com) where I will be selling pieces of that chicken after I catch it. Just in case anybody is interested.

Doug "if you are interested in the whole chicken, let me know" Goodman

Back to our previously scheduled program...

I forgot I had this 1960 JBR 6 Marusho Bromides display with 3 uncut panels of 80 cards each.

Doug "unlike the chicken, they will remain in one piece" Goodman

I'm a big fan of seeing uncut sheets, so I've browsed this thread a number of times recently.

I recently added my first uncut cards to my collection (a six card panel of 1952 Bowman) so I figured I would add an image to this thread.

I have a separate thread on the modern board looking for info on whether this is a salesman sample, or just a partial production sheet. Not sure if there is a difference.

1949 Bowman sheet.
The back is not blury, a double strike of the back of each card.

thanks guys.
Ive been getting into uncut sheets more lately. with all the trimming, altering going on with cards, uncut sheets seem fairly tamper-resistant.

Ted, yeah I’ve scrolled through this whole thread a number of times. Even though I don’t collect football, your 1952 Bowman football sheet looks really nice!

1929-30 R315 Horizontal strip.....scarcer than one would think.
