1933-34 Adam Hats premiums
I just searched and in almost 10 yrs we have never had a dedicated thread on these little jewels. I had been looking for a baseball player one since beginning my type collecting. Even though they are large they fit in nicely with a type collection. I think I can use the term "scarce" on these since I have never seen another baseball one for sale. (I am sure there have been some for sale since I have been collecting but I haven't seen them.) This thread might go absolutely no where but at least now we can say we have an Adams Hats thread. Neat pieces imho.....This is still on the way into me from the Legendary auction. Anyone else have any baseball players?

Some or all of the issue was used in a contest in Adam Hats matchbooks. Here is your Hubbell used as a contest piece:
 A later series of Adam Hats cards, ca. 1938, is cataloged as H815 and contains boxers, in two formats. There are also an unknown number of Adam Hats celebrities and other athletes, including golfers and hockey players.   There were also postcards made from some them

Very cool
 I didnt know they were colorized. only ones Ive seen are the B&W pics in catalogs.Only minor thing I can add to the thread is the name is really "ADAM HATS" not "ADAMS HATS" The SCD Big Book should change its listing title too

Hats!
Hi Leon,
I think I saw a group of these (mostly non-BB) in Legendary's Auction catalog. They are fascinating! Doug at Legendary sends me the actual catalog to use as it's easier for me to read and study for medical issues. I'm hoping that more members will post others, sports of all types, and other celebrities! The hats are stunning as well! thanks to all for sharing these fine items. Once again, I must say that the finest collectors anywhere are among the great members here on net54! Regards, Bill Hedin

Here is the Adam Hats Lefty Gomez matchbook. Note the reversed image. Excuse the blur; my scanner doesn't do depth:

They made a generic ad display of a ballplayer catching a fly ball. Only seen one that I think sold sometime ago 2005 or so. I would love to get that item it's just a great period colorful ad.

Thanks for sharing the info in this thread.
The color types are spectacular. I have a hat, but no card. Mine looks more like the one on Lefty's grape.
