Default Holloway Sucker Stamp - Exhibit Card

Posted By: Todd Schultz

Nice card Leon. That card is an anomoly of sorts and a shortprint, I suspect. I will let Adam or the other Exhibit heads go into it, but Albert "Dutch" Mele only played one season in the Bigs, 1937--at least 10 years before that card was issued. They probably meant to picture Sam Mele, who debuted in 1947 and who has his own 1947-1966 Exhibit cards, and I would guess they pulled the Albert card fairly early. Of course, I'm sure that all of this is what drove you to acquire the card, and not the Holloway back happy.gif
