Default W517 colors

Posted By: fkw

Id buy every single mini you have at 2X! W517 Mini commons will usually sell for 4-6X more than the normal size cards, the HOFers maybe 3-4X. The Mini's are far rarer. They were issued 2 ways, in vertical strip like the normal sized ones, and also there is a 1929 4-in-1 Postcard back Exhibit that has the same images and when cut apart they look very similar and are often collected as part of the same set. The colors of some mini's (especially the cut Exhibit ones) are brighter as you will see with this red one. The 1929 Exhibit is now listed on page 139 in the 2006 SCD, this is the first year they are cataloged.
