Those Cafe du Monde cards are great. And a case could be made that, at the time that card was produed, Wilbur Cooper was the single best pitcher in the NL. He falls a bit shy of Hall-worthy when you look at his full career but definitely not by much. There are at least a few pitchers enshrined who were not as good.

W573 with a Leader Theatre ad on the back.

Another of the oddball theatre-backed cards. There are a number of these about - in both W-573 and W-575 styles.




They are sort of on the edge, IMO, as they're not on the same stock as the traditional ones (these are thicker/heavier). The fact that these are "Series D" implies there may have been others, but I've never seen any... nor have I really looked.

Ad backed R316s are rare. Anyone seen another Rialto Theatre back?

What is a T3 no-ad back? I know of the checklist back and the ad back. Is it blank back or something?
