and a great surprise with number 289.
John Taylor at TnT Collectibles near Pittsburgh has been the source of quite a few cards over the years. A couple of weeks ago, we had a miscommunication over a card, and after a series of emails, he just went through his current inventory and found all the cards he had that Howe had stamped, made an offer and sold in a group rather than go through the auction process on eBay.
When the package arrived today, there was a great surprise with the Jordan card, as it has Howe's "other" stamp, using his first name Urich, and listing him as an agent for the Saturday Evening Post, but still with the home/grocery address listed. Like the other two I've seen and been able to acquire, the stamp is in green, which doesn't seem to hold up as well over time (the others are quite faint also) but really is a wonderful surprise to have arrive.
John had told me the Myers stamp was really strong, and he wasn't kidding on that, either.
Again, thanks to everyone on the board for keeping an eye out for these. I really appreciate it.
