Supplements to the 1939 Card Collectors Catalog? and impromptu contest!!

[Leon]

Does anyone have, or can confirm their existence, the 1944 and 1945 Supplements to the 1939 US Card Collectors Catalog? I am pretty sure they exist but just don't remember seeing them (though I am probably just forgetting). For anyone keeping score, the 1939 US Card Collectors Catalog is the forefather to the American Card Catalog (ACC) which we go by today (for the most part).

I have a few Leon but not those dates. I do have a 1949 Supplement to the 1946 ACC, however.

Thanks Greg....I have seen a few '40's and 41's....a few less 42's and 43's, and don't remember, as I said, a '44 or '45. It never hurts to ask.

The first person, in the next 72 hours, who gives me the definitive answer (with me being the judge)in this thread, gets a free Net54baseball T shirt. Most colors and sizes are left (for sale too ) ..It will be interesting to see if anyone gets it, and if so, how long it takes. thanks for playing..

ps...obviously, I think I found the answer .....

I think I remember reading somewhere that it was every 7 years?

1939
1946
1953
1960


Edited to add: I went looking for the 7 year thing and found this: "Burdick issued a 20-page supplement in July 1940, and smaller supplements in October 1941, and October 1942, but with the war going on, another catalog didn’t come out until 1946, thus starting the every seven-year sequence."
