No other card collector in the entire world would be as excited as I am to have picked up this rough-condition 1925 W504 Universal Toy & Novelty Co. card for my master collection of Sam Rice cards. As best as I can recall, I've only ever seen one other example of this card, a very nice example that resides in the collection of a Board member who won't part with it (hi BVH).

I got this card in a small lot of rough W504s and even-rougher W515-1s in an eBay auction from a seller who is not knowledgeable regarding vintage baseball cards. I say this because he did not reference the ACC designations, the result being that his listing did not match any of my saved eBay searches. Very fortunately for me, Board member and good friend Bryan L. happened to spot the eBay listing and alert me to it - thanks again, Bryan!

Thanks Phil, Sonny & Brian the comedian for your kind words.

Brian, I do truly enjoy your very frequent humor. I did revise my tagline, but not quite as you suggested. :)

REA win arrived today. Very excited to add this one to the collection.

Don't encourage me. It's in my best interest to play the straight man every once in awhile.

Dean, that is a great T205 WaJo. They are SO hard to find centered... awesome pickup.

Missing the bottom tab, but tough rookie card. It'll do for now.

very nice pickup. Great way to end the month

Thanks Andrew! Yeah, the centering is what really motivated me to make a run at this particular card. As you mentioned, so hard to find one nicely centered in any grade.

I was hopeful that that card would end up with you somehow.
