No scan, sorry, but my personal favorite piece is a generic advertising piece issued in 1916 by D'ncona Tailors. The front is divided into 2 sections with one a great action shot of Honus, the other all the stats you could want from the season, including Joe Jackson's. It is the back that is the attention-grabber; it shows a small oval picture of all the players on the winning Red Sox team, including a rookie pitcher named Ruth, who just happened to win 2 games against the losing Dodgers. This one, I think, they will have to pry out of my cold dead hands.
