Let’s see some 1911 zeenuts
 

Here's mine of Flame Delhi, the first Arizonan to make the big leagues, born in what would become a ghost town:

I need another E136...but here are ones, along with some others, from my past collection..

Nice group Leon, love the early coupons.

1911's are just beautiful cards.

I like the 1911 Zeenut cards, and might like 1912 even slightly little more due to the no border design. Here is an example of a 1911 on the left and 1912 on right, with fun stuff on the backs.

The 1911 Kane has one of my all time favorite card scribbling, and something we all might consider adding to our cards. "Do not steal this card for fear the gallows will be your end", which is accompanied by a drawing of a gallows and an obviously criminal stick figure hanging from it.

Also included is a very ominous stamp of a hand perhaps directing its accusatory finger at the name (at a later time scratched over, perhaps the thief's name?) of a likely suspected perpetrator if the card was indeed stolen.

Leon, that was a nice run of coupons.. Nice 1918 ZeeNut with coupon, sweet!

Here are the few that I've gathered...

1911 Zeenuts
 

I love the attitudes and pride of the players in their brand new uniforms.

I'm just trying to help the number of Peckinpaugh cards be the most of any player in this thread. :)

PCL Hall-of-Famer Spider Baum.

For you, Val.

Here's Clarence McDonnell playing for the Vernon Tigers.

My "contribute".
Beautiful, especially for the era.

"I love baseball history backstory; especially when it involves cards."

Grand to see all these ancient souvenirs.

The 1911 Halla Zeenut is one of the nicest cards I own.

Love that card David.

David, a holler out for one helluva Halla. In my mind the Halla card is at the top of the pyramid when it comes to a common player with an incredible, artistically designed prewar card.

Here are six 1911 Zeenut cards in various states of border undress. Many have been trimmed to properly showcase the player's image...who needs excess beige?

Little did little LaLonge know that his squatting pose would cause such scissor frenzy.

Something that I had not previously noticed before...Wolverton's cap is standing incredibly tall and proud atop his head.

Unblank blank backs are somewhat my thing, so note the Buck Barker writing on the Dulin, and the J.J. Collins Collins McCarthy stamp that was fortunately placed upon the middle section of the LaLonge card, thus allowing us to still see it.
