Default Stolen Old Judge Baseball Cards, Please Beware

Many of you know me for the many 19th century card finds I have had over the years. Within the last few weeks I have had 13 Old Judge cards stolen, and have recovered five of them from Burbank Sports Cards who unknowingly bought them from the thief.
I will list images of the eight cards that are still out there in case the thief tries to sell them to you
The theif is a woman named Melissa

Please contact me if you are approached to buy any of these cards
Thanks

That stinks Dave, good luck in recovery and hope justice is served. Do you know how and when Melissa obtained the cards?

All stolen cards are included on the altered card database and the stolen card database. If you just want to view or search stolen cards then this is the link you would use. https://www.tiffanycards.com/altered...atabase/stolen

Let's hope the leads from the Burbank store can help catch this thief. We'll keep an eye on the usual suspects (Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, and fleabay). Hope you get them all back.

Default alls well that ends well

So, hats off to a great job by the LAPD, and thanks to them, I got all the cards back, the last eight came back today and were delivered to me.

The detective put a real scare into the suspect and we will just leave it at that, I am happy I got them back!!

Dave
