Bump Please. I'd love to add this to my collection. Thanks everyone.

You are probably finding results from the Homogenized Bond cards of Robinson with the printed backs. Totally different series.

The card in your photo post looks like the square corner Robinson.

As far as the ebay listing, I have been buying/selling these SGC graded Bond Bread cards for several years. The Williams, Robinson, Musial and even the Reese sell very well. For a low-grade Williams or Robinson I expect $100-150 range. For a high-grade, Williams and Robinson may reach a lot higher. I saw a Williams SGC 9 sell for $1000 last summer. From your numbers a few posts ago, both could be realistic prices even for this card (although more likely 9+ range cards). As Exhibitman noted, the Bond Bread Robinson series is more popular and much more valuable, but these small Bonds in high-grade can costly.

I have the orig Bond Bread Ted that i am about to get re-graded after I thought it looked low in the SGC holder (it had a number grade below 5 i believe) i bought it in. Notice the "beveled" rounded corners which SGC had no problem with:





However i wanted to ask/mention that the square cards aren't necessarily from the warehouse find. PSA calls that large Teddy an "exhibit" however ive heard of the large square one also referred to as "Premiums" by a dealer at the National who claimed they were sendaway prizes for bond bread customer. Im not sure what the exchange was supposed to be but does anyone know anything about this?

Incidentally for some reason PSA doesnt grade the originals they only grade the "exhibits" though im not sure they even do that any more as the population report looks rather stale.

Oh they're not exhibits. That is just the shorthand way of describing them by size. There is no definitive proof of how they were issued or who issued them. They could have been part of a completely different promotion since the artwork itself was licensed to at least a few different companies.
