Are cool. This is the only horizontal in this very scarce set. Always looking for more Big Eaters!!

Love the Big Eater Leon, here's some favorites.

This conversation doesn't even begin without starting here :D

Fun, fun, Scott :rolleyes:

The E Mathewson is definitely one of the best and there are a couple others in the same sets that are also great. If its not obvious, I've always liked this one.

The 1925 A.L. MVP:

I have many horizontal post cards and a few CDVs, but (besides the T206s in my set), this is my only horizontal "card" -- and, of course my picture comes up vertical

Fun thread. Ryan, awesome Matty!

Over the last few months I put together this group of the 6 T206 horizontal cards for my son...

A couple of favorite horizontal Diamond Stars, two T218 from the athletic non-baseball world, and a floating head E99, because his head might as well be floating horizontally, as if bobbing along in a murky pond.

Brian

my only two in my small collection

Ryan, I just flipped Christy's script. Not a bad horizontal to have.

One of my personal favorites here

Circa 1865 game in action... CDV

The Porter card is one of my favorite T cards, both for the pose and for its footnote in card history as the card that got the ATC sued.

Always excited to see someone else post a T218 track pose.

Great stuff!

Jeff, how about trading me your beat up Lections card for this beauty? :D

My only horizontal pose

Thanks!!!

I must admit your card is in amazing shape and has great eye appeal

Emil Meusel had a very good career.

The Beat Up gives the card personality

But sadly I have to decline your generous offer

Interesting Greg, I don't know that story. Perhaps share here, or better yet, on its own thread.

Brian

I'm sure Val can crack out the card, paste a photo copy of Babe's head over Emil's head, scratch out the name and pencil in Ruth's, and then it might just make for a suitable trade.

I think there's only 3 horizontal 1934-36 Batter-Up cards in the series.

Two of my favorites:

T206 Reference

How about some T3s

And some T200s

And a few T202s

Great looking T200s. I've been looking for T200 NY Americans for some time now.

One of my favorites.

Wow and Wow

The graphics and the detail on those T3’s like works of art

My lone contribution to this thread.

I think this goes well with that.

Tough Factory 30 black back:

1936 S & S Game cards of Cyler and Cuyler, tan back and green. Because of the misspelling, these 2 Kiki cards pretty much tell us that the much scarcer tan back cards were issued before the green back ones. And they fixed the spacing on the weight as well.

A few Old Judge horizontal poses...

Piercy Koster. Not sure if there are any more in this set

Koester set includes horizontal Hoyt and Meusel as well

The unmistakable C. H. Sisler.

Some showboat getting in the way of an otherwise great umpire picture.

Only when not cut into two are these Double Play cards indeed horizontal. So for inclusion on this thread I have, in a sense, cheated by jamming the two halves back together again.

Brian

Tough to find a horizontal card that no one has yet posted in this esteemed group, but here's my best effort!

Some really nice cards

Surprised that there are not more horizontal cards in some of these sets

Came them coming

.

Here's a N690:

J=K Candy
 

No longer in my collection but here is a horizontal card that you don't see every day.

The only day I have seen it is today...great card.

Brian

Love that Kalamazoo!
