Truly scarce postwar cards

Always enjoy seeing your salesman samples Anthony. Almost as much as your pack display

I have only these 2 salesman samples. I'm always looking for any of these that include either Pete Runnels or Mickey Vernon.

Here are a couple of Seaver rarities from better known sets -- the 1973 Topps comic and 1973 Topps pinup.

Outstanding! I basically gave up on my Topps "Seaver as a Met" collection as completion was virtually impossible thanks to those two.

Byron "By" Speece, a submarine pitcher, began his pro career in the minors in 1922 at age 25 and finished his career with the Seattle Rainiers in 1945 at age 48! I collect his cards because he pitched for the 1924 WS Champion Washington Senators, his only year with this team. After the 1924 season, Clark Griffith shrewdly traded Speece and another "no-name" player to Cleveland for Stan Coveleski who greatly helped the Senators win the 1925 AL pennant. He pitched for Cleveland in 1925 and very briefly in 1926 and for the Phillies in 1930. All of the rest of his years were spent in the minors.
