Just picked up a raw Fredericks large type. Cant see a lot of info in the search of previous posts. Old Cardboard and Standard Catalog only list the small (1-3/16 x 2-3/4 or 2-5/8) but neither identify the larger (1-3/4 x 3-3/4) sized card/photo. The small all seem to be bordered in one fashion or another and the large all seem to be borderless. All the large appear to have album removal residue but it could also be mount removal residue if these were originally issued on a mount. Interesting that the large would have a back stamp, which most do, if they were intended to be on a mount. Also interesting that some have the logo and some dont, both in the large and small. That, along with the wide variety of labeling, logo, and size, would indicated many small and different 'printings'. The fact that they are real photo's and so varied makes them rather interesting to me.

The Stanage card is a perfectly classic pose, and the bio on Harley Frederick was enjoyable to read.

I thought I would resurrect this old thread and see if there are any new tidbits of info on this less than popular and less than abundant set?
