I just won a 1915 Sporting News Dick Hoblitzell at a silent auction in Frederick, MD today. The back is from Famous-Barr of St. Louis. I got home and noticed the card didn't have the card number at the bottom of the team name as usual. Fearing the card to be trimmed, I measured it. It measured 1 15/16"x 3". It's not trimmed but a bit wider than the Standard Guide dimensions. I began to think it might be a reprint, but have never seen a Famous-Barr Sporting News reprint, and this card doesn't look like any of the reprints I've investigated or seen. I think began to think this might be a cut-out or some promo? Perhaps it's from another issue? Any and all help is wanted, and forgive me if I'm missing the obvious. Here are some scans... |
