Hey there wondering what I'm sitting on. My family passed these pre war cards down and i recently inherited them.
Aside from Don Warneke being The Arkansas Hummingbird and playing for the cubs in the 1930-45 and Charles Klein being the Hoosier Hammer and playing for philli. what can you say about these cards. Where would i get these appraised? |
Those are 1933-34 Worch Cigars, issued out of Minneapolis. Maybe check ebay for comparable sales, I would grade those in about vg-ex condition, unless there are some tears I missed (I can't tell on bottom of Warneke)
PS. Klein can be found with Phillies or Cubs designation. FWIW, yours is likely from 1933. |
Yes Worch cigar cards from 1933. The Lon (not Don) Warneke card is probably worth about $40 or so depending on condition. The Chuck Klein card is worth more, maybe $100 - $200. You can read a little about this set on the Old Cardboard website (see link on upper right of the Net54 homepage). Look under T cards.
Fun fact - Warneke became an MLB umpire after his playing days were over |
Yep, Worch Cigar cards. The Klein would grade a 1 due to the punctures and Warneke looks like a 3 or 4. I think they are both in the $75-100 range.
