Thanks to everyone who was watching the auction and especially to those who made offers.

Hello everyone,

Just after eBay began, I decided to buy Newsboy cabinet cards to see how many I could get. After about 50 different ones, they were harder to find, so I also started buying subjects that had the same number but different poses. My goal was to get as many as possible and then write a book about Newsboys and have color pictures of all the cards and short bios on each person.

I stopped my project because I found that it would take forever to find some of the numbers (though recently some Newsboys have come up for sale on eBay that I have never seen before) and also because the baseball players are cost prohibitive.

So, I have listed my collection of 142 different Newsboy cards and poses on eBay with a Buy It Now price of $1,100.00. They are auction #110053726859.

Thank you for your interest,

David
