1930s Uncatalogued Billy Herman premium for sale
 

Posted By: <b>Alan Elefson</b><p>Hi-<br> Scanned below is a late 1930s unacatalogued Cubs premium of Billy Herman for sale. I found the Herman, 20 commons, and Gabby Hartnett at an antique shop in March 2008. I posted on this board about them and here is the thlink to the thread.<br><br><a href="http://www.network54.com/Forum/153652/thread/1205982489/late+30s+early+40s+Cubs+Photo+Pack+questions" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.network54.com/Forum/153652/thread/1205982489/late+30s+early+40s+Cubs+Photo+Pack+questions</a><br><br> In the link, you can see the envelope and other examples of the premiums. I also posted it to Don Fluckinger's blog, linked here.<br><br><a href="http://standardcatalog.wordpress.com/2008/03/24/cubs-photo-pack-esque-find" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://standardcatalog.wordpress.com/2008/03/24/cubs-photo-pack-esque-find</a>/<br><br> The premiums are paper thin and blank backed. They were apparently issued by Andy Lotshaw CO. (See the scan in the thread linked above. He was the trainer for the Cubs for 20 years.). The Herman has some staining on the back, but over all looks nice. Please see the scans below and please ask if additional/better scans are needed.<br> I sold the 20 commons and envelope for a little over 200 dollars a couple of weeks after I bought them. I am keeping the Hartnett in my collection for now, but might part with it if someone needs it. I have since heard that the group of 20 commons and envelope went for about 100 dollars on Ebay (I never saw the auction, someone told me about it). I also know other collectors have some examples from this set, but I really do not know an exact value to place on the Herman. Please feel free to make me an offer. Please either post here or email me. The first reasonable offer I receive I will take. Please also let me know if you have any questions. <br>Thanks in advance,<br>Alan Elefson<br>aelefson@hotmail.com<br><br><img src="http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h262/aelefson/January4200917.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br><img src="http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h262/aelefson/January4200918.jpg" alt="[linked image]"><br>
