Looking for n300 or n162 ad pieces, oddities, etc...

[shammus]

Looking for any errors or oddities from the n300 or n162 sets. These could be ad pieces cut off of posters, printing goofs, blank backed cards (maybe not for the n300s though), etc....

Depending what is out there, I'd consider any of the above for the n28/n29 sets as well.

Thanks in advance,
Brian

Hi Brian- I don't believe advertising posters for N162 or N300 exist. The regular issue cards are all that is out there.

Edited to add you can find N162 cut out of the Champions album, so I stand somewhat corrected.

Hi Barry,

Nice hearing from you. I think a cutout is about all I can realistically expect from the n162 set. Although I do know of an n162 or two that are missing color passes out there in people's collections.

As for the Mayos, I've never really seen any but thought maybe someone else had....

I did however pick up a blank backed ad piece from the n28 set last night...

A blank backed N28 can either be cut from an album, or from an advertising poster. There's probably a way to tell, based on the thickness or texture of the paper, but I'm not sure.

Here's a copy of the N28 poster. Maybe this will help you tell if a blank backed N28 is from a book or the poster.

my interest is piqued! Sorry to squeeze in your bst page but just curious about the above? I have some ginter pieces amongst my stuff and would love to hear about it. No interest in jumping into anyone's transaction - only seeking information....

btw - that's some banner! Not my favorite as it lacks the sophistication of other examples of the genre but it's quite important and beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...........

Hello everyone new to this forum but I thought I might chime in since there is interest in my card. From what Heritage auctions and I came up with is that it is dated the same as the Goodwin champions N162. It is the same card stock but is hand cut from an advertising banner. I had my hands on the exact same Cap Anson and the back carried the same advertisement just a different section. Both were sold to me as a lot. Obviously cut from the same banner. The Cap sold immediately for what I paid for the pair to a private collector and Heritage put a pleasing estimated value on it after the fact. So a little sellers remorse as that went. The plan was to keep them together and auction in Chicago later this year but times got hard and the wife even harder and since the Anson did well I decided on a quick turn around on EBay with the "King". I have had some nice offers and input and I thank everyone for there interest I am confident this historic piece o baseball history will go to a good home. By the way so glad to be a voice in this forum now and look forward to hearing some great collecting stories.

Maybe Leon would like to move this thread to the main board. Lots of very good information here but doesn't seem like any buying or selling is going on..........
