T214 Victory & T215 Red Cross Tobacco Cards

[RCMcKenzie]

Nice cards, Steve. Glad you got 'em. I was about to start a thread saying, "Who in the world outbid me on these?", but it was already here.

I was another of the bidders on those T215s on eBay. I was the high bidder for a while until they went above $80, and I was thinking I might put in some higher bids, but I forgot to do it before the auctions ended. When I saw what they went for, my eyes popped. Congrats on the cards, Steve -- I'm glad they went to a board member.

Unfortunately, I don't have a T214 (one of my white whales as a type collector), but I do have a couple of T215s, both Type 2. I've had the Schulte for over 20 years, and it's in one of the album pages I've posted pictures of. The Byrne I got maybe 10-15 years ago on eBay. It has better eye appeal in person than in the scan; the creases aren't as noticeable.

Thanks, Rob and Ed...I'm glad that I'm at least able to provide some closure.

Rob, that is a very nice Ames!
