E-254 Colgan's Chips
 
Posted By: <b>Len</b><p>I've been looking for a Cin.Reds player,Bescher,in the E-254 series for several years--based on the listing in Lew Lipset's &quot;Ency.of B'll Cards&quot;(p.74 in the middle section)which lists Bescher in both E-254 and Tin Tops.However,the 2008 edit.of Std.Cat.of B'll Cards lists Bescher only in the Tin Tops.Can someone tell me,definitively,which is correct ????<br><br>

Posted By: <b>Rhett Yeakley</b><p>Bescher does not exist as an E254 card. He was one of several errors listed in several early checklist's (including Lipset's encyclopedia) that were perpetuated for many years. He does exist as an E270 Tin Tops, he is the worst condition card I own from the set (I would love an upgrade), but his E270 is shown below...<br><br><img src="http://www.starsofthediamond.com/tintopbescher.JPG" alt="[linked image]"><br><br>-Rhett
