Cartoonish Vintage Cards
 

This was inspired be Leon’s March pickup

Would love to see some vintage cards that are cartoons or Cartoonish

Here is mine to start

1st set I thought of was the '38 Goudeys

More artwork than cards, although it’s just a matter of time before someone is successful at getting them slabbed.

Here's a card two years after he integrated the American League, showing Doby as a white man. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...198a7f338e.jpg

These are kind of cartoonish...

I always thought that many in the W515 set look comic-bookish. I also added a mystery W515-esque strip (not mine) made in Germany that obviously borrowed/modified the W515 images. I do have a single card of Adams from this intriguing German issue.

Looks like Paul is rubberneckin' this thread to see if he had been mentioned.

I clicked this thread expecting to see this card and you came through for me. Thank you.

A few more cartoons............

My first thought was also the '38 Goudeys, but then I remembered I had this card

hand-drawn...

Interesting how a slight offset in print color between the bottom two cards changed what Speaker appears to be looking at.

What, no E91s?

Just posted about these cartoon-y 1951 transfers over the weekend!

Here are a couple more E91A cards. I also threw in a cartoon T206 Waddell for comparison, because if it is not a photographic depiction of the player, the artwork on cards can be considered cartoonish to a few or many.

Some really cool cartoonish cards

Really love the Hand Drawn Chief Bender Day card
