January Pick Ups

Picked up this beauty.

Jerry and Jeff, much appreciated! Ryan, huge thanks for giving me the opportunity to buy the card that will now be the cornerstone of my prewar Red Sox collection!

I just obtained what almost certainly will be my Pickup of the Year 2022 for my master set of Sam Rice cards. I noted this 1-of-1 1921 Queen City Cigar Store card in the SGC pop report several years ago, but I figured my chances of ever acquiring it to be less than "slim and none."

Now then, perhaps I can get a hot streak going. There are 2 other similar Rice cards issued around the same time by West Coast companies, that I've noted in the pop reports, and that I'd love to add to my Rice collection, if possible - they are a Keating Candy and a Witmor Candy Type 2 (has the vertical ad back). If anyone can help me locate either of these cards, I'll be most appreciative.
