minor league cards
Somewhat change in direction.
I have been a minor league card collector since the 1940's and have never cared about value, stars, rookies etc. Nor did I ever worry about whether they ever made it to a gum card.
Having said that I never collected the famous cigarette or zee nut cards of players long dead before my birth.
So...in my opinion some great minor issues include Globe Printing, Sunbeam Bread, Sommer and Kaufmann, Union Oil, Signal Oil, Demaree, Mothers Cookies, Kahns Atlanta, Montreal Royals Exhibits, Hughes Confections, National Bank of Washington, Schiebel Press, Smiths Clothes, Pureta Meats, Centennial Flour and Parade Sportive. and a number of other issues.
Hope this did not bore you and also think and hope there are others like me.
