Ty Cobb Spalding Inquiry

[DougG423]

I saw this at a local show. The dealer acquired it as part of a collection at the show. He couldn't find any info about it. Does anyone have info about it? Approx 5"x7" with Conlon photo. And those are staple holes on one edge. Sorry for the horrible photos. Thank you.

Just a page from a Spalding guide. The whole guide in nice shape can be found around $150, so what's a page worth?

I did find the 1919 Spalding Guide. You're right, it's in the $150 range. I wasn't able to find that exact page sold. My guess it's more of a unique collector piece than a valuable item. Are the staples for binding or were the guide pages glued?

They were glue bound but someone may have stapled a copy that was falling apart. There is no value to a single page or to the various "cards" that people cut out of the guides either.
