Great topic...

Would the classic Hughie Jennings pose qualify as a half-vertical?

Whoa, so far that Batter-up Pep Young (#195) card will give Freddie Mercury a run for his money. From that angle it darn near looks like he is jumping 20 feet in the air!

Jeff, that skinny dude with the basketball is coming-up short on his dunk. He is disqualified on two counts, first for missing the dunk and secondly if you search for him on google. He didn't even make it past double AA!

Great Idea - This guy has a Pep in his step :

Leap-frog the shadow man
Never noticed before, but the Ross Youngs E121 (as posted previously) has a cool shadow of him below his feet.

I think this is my only one (besides the Diamond Star posted above and cards from recent Topps sets)... Sorry that it's a 1961... It is a neat card, though...

Jeff,
When I first saw this thread, I immediately thought of that Rigney card you posted. He looks like he's floating in space. From looking at the images, it's safe to say the 1920s were the golden years of "verticals." |
Let's Go Otto!

And, apologies that none of my posts are of "cards". Doug |
I never noticed before that the E121 and E220 Youngs are different photos.

This is as good a way to introduce myself as any, I suppose.
I'm not a collector, .....I'm a lover :) |

Welcome Tsaiko !
Sweet T210... I believe Moran and Pepe are the only Vertical T210's in the Series 8 subset.... :cool: |
Thanks for the welcome. I'm really serious about not being a collector, but I love the cards I have and think they are beautiful.
I wanted to learn something about them, then found this site and have been getting an education ever since. I really enjoy looking at your cards and hearing the stories behind them. I lurked for a few weeks, but had to join so I could see the pictures that only members can see. Now that I'm a member, what's the secret of posting pictures that can't be seen by non members :cool: I clearly didn't do it above. I really don't belong here, because I don't have a passion for collecting, but I do appreciate it immensely. Btw, when you say vertical, does that mean off the ground or just the pose type? See, I really know nothing :) |

The card doesn't do Clemente's vertical justice, so I included my TYPE I photograph...
