Help with Leader Novelty Baseball Cards
 

Posted By: <b>Preece1</b><p>I am trying to track down information on the baseball cards issued by Leader Novelty Candy Company of Brooklyn, NY. From looking at the cards I have found (Mel Ott, Jim Bottomley, Dazzy Vance, Eddie Rommel, Joe Judge, and Sam Jones) and the teams the players are shown to be playing for, they must have been issued between 1928-1931. Does anyone have any additional information?

Posted By: <b>Glen V</b><p>The SCD lists Leaders, Kashin (R316), and W553s as being from 1929. Any reason to think otherwise?<br /><br />I have Earl Combs, Joe Judge, Ed Miller, Frank O'Doul, Melvin Ott, Eddie Rommel, Al Simmons, & Hack Wilson. The Combs & Rommel aren't listed in the SCD (yet), so there are at least 19 known. Could be 101 if they have the same checklist as the Kashin set.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1112072999.JPG">
