Gilliam Squires Back Stamp Project

[Dan Carson]

I have seen other type cards besides the T212 with the Gilliam back stamp. I actually looked him up on Ancestry.com once. If I remember right he lived in Oakland, CA.. You might Google him?

I did a Google search on him and it looks as if he was from San Jose. I did find some old auction results, including Leon's sale of an E99 Roy Hitt. There were some old threads on here that produced some info as well.

Here are a few from my previous collection. I don't recall them on other cards but would guess they could be on any from the era. I think the faint red mark on the back of the gold Delmas is not Gilliam Squires but some unknown mark.

Thanks Leon. The E99 design is growing on me, Squires or not

I have several.... Maybe 20 or so T212's. I will try to post some pics-

I've taken over the Gilliam Squires collection from Jason A (thanks, Jason). From what I can tell, Gilliam lived (as an adult) in the Rose Garden area of San Jose, California, near where I grew up. I thought it would be fun to have these and add to the collection if new ones become available. I focus on players/teams connected with the San Jose/Santa Clara area. It's interesting to now have some cards from an original collector tied to the area. Let me know if you see any that become available.

Very cool, and I think if you keep your eyes peeled you will reel in some more over time.
