Always really liked this one, barely noticeable staple holes and all - Orange Border of Nap Lajoie.

Well then Leon, if a Derby Cigar is not "a tobacco card whatsoever," then what do you consider it to be? BTW, here's the link to what was my Derby Cigars type card that REA sold for me in their last auction of 2019: https://robertedwardauctions.com/auc...rs-fred-merkle

I was only going by this.

And I should add I don't think anything was perfectly conclusive when discussed.

Leon, thanks for your response and for the link to the old thread re the discovery of the Phila. Athletics sheet of these "cards." The Fred Merkle I gave REA to auction was graded by SGC shortly before the auction, which leads me to conclude that the hobby still considers them to be Derby Cigars.

Fave E Card : E270-2 Tin Top of Harry Welchonce. Only one known for now :)
Hard Luck Harry finished 4th in batting in the Southern Association in 1912. Career .321 hitter in 7 minor league seasons, purchased by 3 Major league teams, went to spring training 5 times, but only played 26 games one season for the Phillies where he hit .212

LOL...you can consider them elephants if you want to.
BTW, I agree, the hobby does still call them Derby Cigars as well as I do. They are indeed known by that....but that doesn't make them into what they are being called. Lots of mistakes like that. We all know or some.
