REA -- What Did you Get?

[orly57]

Happy to get this card. I Love the back with the 1907 postmark and the message where the sender writes that he saw the Cubs beat the Tigers (Game 4 of the World Series).

Seems I remain terrible at uploading pictures.

I picked up the Lajoie PC796, Rogers Peet Rogers Hornsby and the Mathewson Pinkerton Postcard.

Some corrections need to be done with the article, as he was off on some of the advertisers and their locations including this pickup. The Jeweler is actually located in Cadiz, Oh and not Chicago, IL as published.

Fascinating. My buddy owns nearly 100 acres right near Cadiz. VERY rural area - I love it.

My first Joe Jackson item from his playing days. Not only was it affordable, but I think player notebooks are neat.

A lot of the Negro League prices closed higher than I expected in today’s market. Going into closing day, most all of the NL pieces were extremely low, I would have been thrilled with the final numbers if I was a consignor, given where they were just 24 hours before.

I had a Martin Dihigo picture that sold really well but my Willard Brown contract sold for $1000 which was really surprising.

I have never seen a Morehouse Ruth, so can offer no opinion there. As for Standard Biscuit, I have only seen three, and only that number have been graded by PSA and SGC- the two you show and an SGC 40. You are correct in identifying the two (the SGC 40 is from the earlier m101-5 also).

There are stock and a couple of production identifiers that help differentiate the two. With Standard Biscuit the creamier or more golden-looking stock, particularly noticeable on the back, is very seldom found on m101-4 cards. Standard Biscuit was likely the first advertiser to receive m101-5 or D350-1 cards, and the stock is easily seen as non-white, although it can vary in degree

Todd - I somehow missed your post. Thanks for the detailed response. I really appreciate it.
