Pre-WWII Bakery Cards
 

Actual card threads are some of my faves. And I imagine quite a few deals have been done over the years because of them.

Show one if you want to... A fairly recent D381 trade with a board member and shown a few times but still ...

-
1911 Pacific Coast Biscuits.
-

I have always found bread issues to be tougher than cookie/ Biscuit issues. Mom was typically opening bread and was less inclined to save cards.

Nice, Phil. Relative, perhaps? I must say, the old PCL was like MLB for the West coast. Very cool.

Another D310 Pacific Coast Biscuit, this one of Oscar Vitt, as well as a fun sheet cut D311 Pacific Coast Biscuit, D311's colorful little brother.

Probably not a Koester Bakery "card"
 

, but cut from a Koester Bakery poster promoting the subway series in 1921 featuring the Giants and Yankees

The poster is a thicker than regular cards' stock.

Players from the New York clubs not in the regular set were included in the bread set.

Jesse certainly looks like a lock to become a future Hall of Famer. :D

I guess when it comes to the Baseball Hall of Fame, sometimes being the one left holding the bag works out just fine.

Leon, I recognize this card - thanks again for the trade!

Here's an example of the other D359 card, although this is not noted on the flip:

A D381 face that only a D303 Mother's Bread could love.


Brian (not my Mother's, but a Mother's from another Mother's Lover)

I will follow Leon's footsteps and show one that I've shown before. It is the only Pre-WW2 Bakery issue I have though.

Not exactly a "card" but my best fit here.........

Love the bakery cards. Seems like Moms tossed most of these out with the bread wrappers !

Dean, that's one of my favorite cards. I'm still looking for the answer on the backwards S on the uniform, which appears on Tenny's card too.

I love that you have Lionel's. Here's another favorite.

A pic I have shared in the past, but how can I not share my pre-WW2 bread loaf container alongside my pre-WW2 bread card?

Paul, I'm lovin' your D380 of Addie Joss. I'm also showing the back of my D380 type card for those who aren't familiar with this scarce issue.

Thanks Jim. I too have wondered about the backwards S.

Thanks Val ! Based on the SGC serial numbers, our two cards came from the same find quite a few years ago.

Good catch, Paul. I hadn't noticed this.

Here is a 1921 D350-3 Standard Biscuit of Maranville, who punches in as a star player for the Pirates.

Nice H to H Bread cards, Brian. Not many of those around without paper loss on the back.

Thank you Val.

Great back, Val.

Here are my two Evers Brunners Butter Krust and Chance Weber Bakery

My other favorite bakery issue

My only bakery card...H. Weil Baking Co.

Chance overprint
 

Jim that is a cool Chance Weber overprint...Jerry

Even though D322 Tip Top Bread cards are somewhat small (about 1-3/4" x 2-3/8"), there's still a lot to loaf about them.

Yankee Cake

Cool card, Glenn!

D381s

Fantastic Erick, thanks for posting.

My head just exploded.

Thanks guys!

A few raw 1916 & 1917 WaJos:

This large Felt Pillow Top was a premium that could be had in return for 50 coupons from the D381 Ferguson Bakery cards. Besides Evers, all of the images are the same that were used for the cards.

Not a card, but…

Felsch's brother in arms

Lucky to pick this up from a fellow Net54 member last year -- appears to be the third example of this card to surface since 2003.

Riddle played in 98 MLB games, spread out between 1930 and '48 (age 42). He played 1,600+ minor league games, mostly in Indianapolis. He was a coach on Milwaukee's '57 World Series championship team.
