Default 1949 Exhibits

Hi Frank:

Yep, I read that too, and it does not say Waitkus was issued with AN EXHIBIT CARD notation. Who was the ebay seller? We may be able to go back looking at his feedback to see who won the Waitkus and try to ask the buyer.

However, since Waitkus was not on any old checklists, and until someone can provide a scan of one you did the right thing by taking it off the checklist.

All the ones currently on ebay do not show the example we are talking about, and I am 99.9% sure the card does not exist. I have never seen it in my over 50 years of Exhibit collecting including a visit to the Exhibit plant in Chicago in 1966 when I got all the uncut sheets, I posted here in another forum.
