Walter Pipp Exhibit
 
i purchased this Pipp exhibit but can't seem to find it in any of the reference material. can anyone identify what year it is from? is it original tp the 1920's or some kind of a reprint?

It appears to be exactly what the listing said it is, a '26-'29 Anonymous Exhibit. They should be listed in the Standard Catalog.

The 2012 Standard Catalog (Vintage) shows the card style of exhibits after 1924 to have all block lettering. the style of this Pipp is much more like the 1921 (AM.L) but my catalog doesn't list a Pipp

Here is a picture of the 1923-24 and his 1926-29 PC Backed (can be blanked back too)-

And to further the discussion a bit, it seems '23 Exhibits, especially the ones with borders, are more scarce than most other years. I still need one as I haven't seen a HOF'er I want, at the price I want to pay. But they seem scarce, relatively speaking...

Yes the 1923-24 are much harder than most other exhibits. The series only contain 7 HOFers, of those only two have white borders (Simmons and Ruth). Hope you are not waiting for a Ruth.
