This piece is signed by Lou Boudreau, Larry Doby, and Bob Feller. Got it for a steal.


1934 Goudey Charlie Gehringer. Card looks better than the grade in my opinion.



Jim Thome lot, including my first ever 1/1 in my collection.


1927 W560 Waite Hoyt, with a strong grade might I add for a Hand Cut card.



And I will now go back into my hole of shame while posts of Cobbs, Ruths, etc. surround this post...

Looks like the first word could be "Colliery"? Which is basically a coal mine and would make sense coming from PA.

I don't have the card in-hand yet. I'll post more details if I can make out the writing when I receive the card.

It is or should be Collins-McCarthy the maker of Zeenuts...although that second word first letter looks like an H...

The last 2 words appear to me to be "Candy Co." The "C" looks the same to me as the "C" in Collins. Perhaps it is "Collins Hershey Candy Co."

Great looking Gehringer. Much nicer than the number on the flip.

Thanks! It has a SMALL crease through the face area, but it's hardly noticeable, especially in a picture. It also has a small stain-type mark on the top, but again, hardly noticeable.

I have been taught to buy the card, not the grade. VERY happy with this, especially for the price.
