Scarce "Type" Cards

I think I will always love scarce type cards...whether from a set or individually known..

I hear ya on that Type Card thang.
I sure wasn't going to hunt this set. Purchased from our humble "peasant/forum owner", 20 some years ago on eBay; when eBay hunting was fun.

Galena, IL was our honeymoon place; of course, Mr. Grant is much present there. Still one of the faves of my collection.

I have many scarce backs, but not too many scarce types, although I think this fits the bill. Are there any other Harper Whiskey cards/players?

Whoa. Had no idea this existed. I love IW Harper.

Super nice "Team Issue" Leon. Preaching to the choir, I love rare type cards and their stories.

That's just nuts that TT grades a "1," Phil. As I like to put it, the same grade it would get if run over by a tank in the mud. Somehow, the lower end of the grading scale needs to be fixed.

Hopefully this topic will get some attention. Nice cards

Lots of Mendelssohn type cards.
Lots of 1/1 from pop reports..

I'll take "1"s like that any day. A couple more hen's teeth.

Probably from 1915, not 1917. Matty and WaJo are the only others confirmed.

1886 Hancock Clothing. These represent the first minor league cards and the first cards with players info on the back. Three known—each unique.

I remember getting about 5 of these with the Trophy Sticker on them...and was glad to reacquire one.

Love the Hancock Clothings. I've never heard of these before.

A little west coast candy representation. 1 of 1.
