Thanks for posting the ad Leon. Thats the first mention of a Chicago office that I've seen. Primarily used for their packaged goods (peanut butter, jams,etc) rather than their candy. The "candied figs" are different as they had enough preservatives to stay fresh for a few months. Those Calarab boxes have turned up in different regions of the country. Also, the San Diego factory still exists (the building not the business). It was converted to an Antique mall in the late 70's, then renovated in the last decade. One of the first buildings to undergo renovation in what is now the gaslamp district / old downtown San Diego. San Francisco's factory (not listed in your ad) was destroyed in the '06 earthquake

That is a very nice, valuable card, but overpriced by a factor of about 100.

It is ego pricing so when anyone does a Pre-War search and sorts by "Price: highest first" this listing tops the list. The claim can be made it is the most expensive card in its class. It has been there for many many months and will remain until the price is lowered to a reasonable amount, it is de-listed, or hell freezes over.

Thank you and thanks to Paul for the info. I think some eBay sellers subscribe to the PT Barnum theory of gullibility. Course, in this case you need to be a sucker AND loaded!

One of my favorite cards in my collection, Blaine "Kid" Durbin. Durbin was a bit player for two seasons for the Chicago Cubs, but those two seasons were 1907 and 1908. Two years of note to Cubs fans...

Default One of my favourite Zeenut cards

Is this one of Gilly Campbell, the "One Legged Catcher"

(For those not familiar with the issue, Mr. Campbell obviously had two legs, but the cropping on this Zeenut leaves a bit to be desired!)
