Been away for a few days and just saw this thread. Great cards, and great discussion.
I did auction the MacDonald card but it was actually in November, 2001. Small point, but that's the date.
The two new cards look like the Gypsy Queen ad was clipped off. If the cards weren't trimmed I'm sure they would be identical to the MacDonald. And like some many unique or near unique cards, we always wonder where the others went. I've often felt that pretty much everything was destroyed in the 1906 earthquake, so that may explain the great rarity of them. Cool thread.
And for once I would like to see a thread where collector Keith Olbermann offers something insightful about baseball cards and not even one single yahoo chimes in with some political garbage. Keith's previous career and his passion for baseball cards are entirely unrelated. Grow up.
