Dormand postcards Anyone have experience with these?

I posted this on the CU boards but wanted to post them here too.


I have looked at Dormand postcards for a while now and am literally amazed by the photos on the cards. They just say "1950's New York Baseball" to me and I would love to dive in and do some collecting of these. Does anyone have experience with these cards?

I know there was some cards like the Hodges that were considered short prints but a hoard was just found that made them affordable now. Are there significant short prints still remaining?

What can I reasonable expect to pay for these cards? I have looked on Ebay and would like to know how close are the realized Ebay prices when compared to shows etc.

I assume non-used postcards will bring a premium but is there a signifcant premium for non-used cards?

I also see that there is a large size Rizzuto on line right now and was curious if this is a legitimate Dormand or something someone made on their own. Any thoughts?

Last question (at least for now)....Blank backs. Stay away from them or are these legit as well?

Thanks for any help you guys can give.
