Default 1934-36 Diamond Stars question

Posted By: Hal Lewis

As a HOF rookie card collector...

this is important information for me, as it would indicate that AL LOPEZ and DUCKY MEDWICK do NOT have "1934" Diamond Stars cards...

thereby making the 1935 Diamond Star their first widely distributed issue.



Lopez and Medwick have "Batter Up" cards...but there is really no way to know whether those cards were printed in 1934, 1935 or 1936.

It also means that HANK GREENBERG does NOT have a "1934" Diamond Stars card...

thereby making the 1934 Goudey clearly an earlier issue than his D.S. card.
