1953 Glendale Meats Art Houttemann is a tough post-war card.

I really like this obscure chemical company issue from the early 1950s:

Rarest post war card?
One of the rarest post war cards escaped me last night in goldin auctions...and it sold for a song
The last time sold in auction was 13000 21 years ago Last nite 1800 + bp It wasn't hyped or anything...modern crap and memorabilia dominated and this was lost in the Crowded field The 1960 Kent Hadley A'S yankees card |

Glad to add this to my collection. Now I need to find the Cimoli and Thronberry https://goldinauctions.com/LotDetail...entoryid=68915 |
1962 Salada Killebrew with straight letters and #48 Dick Williams name on right. The Killebrew may be an early test. The Williams almost never appears while the other rare variations (Brandt, Bailey, and Broussard) are seen at least occasionally.
Also R94-1 Babe Ruth movie scenes (2) from “Babe Comes Home”. Try finding the se especially in vg or better condition. |
Congrats Fred. Great pick up. Am envious

I know of a set that could be available. If interested PM me. Sorry photo is upside down. Hope someone can correct it for me. |
I have no idea who issued this card, but I also doubt there are any others. Matty Alou only played for Escogido in the 1958-59 offseason. Also on the Escogido team with him were a young Willie McCovey and Juan Marichal, who both theoretically probably have cards from this issue too:

Being that I am a Mickey Vernon collector, I'm thrilled to have this very scarce 1948 Gunther Beer PC, a Washington, DC, issue. Does anyone else have any of these, besides Larry S. who showed his Early Wynn-Edie Yost PC earlier in this thread?
