Post Your Wheaties Backs
 
3 Attachment(s)
I have enjoyed the "Post 3" threads that are currently running. There was also a thread running 1-2 weeks ago trying to have all 1943 R302-1 cards posted. Many of the comments were about eye candy. So how about we all try posting our Wheaties backs and see what we can get? I have three Ernie Lombardi backs in my collection. I have a 1937 Series 7 (crouching position). A 1938 Series 11 (street clothes, with Lee Grissom). And a 1939 Series 12 (Personal Pointers - How to Place Hits for Scores).

The color on those are great. I don't know what's better, the picture frames or the vibrant colors.

A little off topic.:D Here is a full uncut/unfolded custom Wheaties box I made a few years ago. Sorry don't have a cut and folded picture. I also add the bag of cereal from one of those single serving boxes to make it way more realistic.:)

HRBAKER, is your '37 Hubbell a series 9 or 14?

My favorite Wheaties back and Definitely top 5 Of all Gehrig cards in my humble opinion. And a mini Gehringer a very scarce card.

That is a beautiful Gehrig. I don't think I've ever seen these mini backs before. Very cool!

1937 PCL subset
 
5 Attachment(s)
There are four PCL players in the 1937 Wheaties set, super tough cards to find.
Would've been nice if that did a fifth player, and it was that kid from San Diego.

I've also included a box front, signed by Seattle Indians announcer Leo Lassen, and OF Levi McCormack.Nine years later McCormack was one of the few survivors of the tragic Spokane Indians bus crash:
