This my example, I had a Pratt also but sold it to a board member...

I have Elmer Miller and my back has the same exact area of paper loss. Makes me wonder if all of these cards came from the same scrap book

It's always a good day when you learn something new! Thanks everyone for sharing these!

Beautiful cards everyone! Don't know how I missed this thread. Sorry to raise it back from the dead but I love these backs! I have a few, but it looks like Rhett has me beat. All but one of mine have paper loss on the back as well. Always looking to add to my collection if anyone has any available ... can anyone help me get a 9th for a full page!?

I have to work on better scans of these. Walker is on the front of the Gertenrich and it is in an SGC 40 holder. BTW, neat find Rhett. Thanks for sharing.

Leon,
You probably shouldn't have written your initials on the back of that vertical Witmor. It's going to cost you some money when you go to sell it.

I got it from Lew Lipset, it is pictured on page 38 of his Encyclopedia (the 3 versions edition), but have never asked him about it. I always thought it kind of funny. I have no idea if he put the letters there or not.

Ken--I believe the vast majority of the Lou Gertenrich cards that have surfaced came from one seller on ebay about a dozen years ago that had dozens of them individually listed. Each card had paper loss on the back as has been seen in this thread, which makes one think they all came from a scrapbook. I ended up winning one for my collection...Hank Gowdy.

That's about the time I won my Elmer Miller so that makes sense.

Does anybody here know who owns the Whitey Glazner (SGC 10) Gertenrich? I didn't know it existed until today, but I'm collecting Glazner now, so I'd like to see this card if one of you has it. Thanks.
