Great looking cards, Chuck!! (along with the other members shown too)

and another rppc, regular sized card but large scan, of a generic baseball scene...had it for a while but don't remember showing it...

Very nice photo Leon, I love the old timey color on those!
Here are two that I am stoked about getting. My first Tolstoi (happens to be a portrait I needed!) and my first Johnny Kling for my back run! Hooray!

.. Wheaties premium ; postcard-sized but blank back ; Just bought the raw one at the bottom ; Irving "Jack" Burns of the St. Louis Browns ; five fewer tack-holes and an ounce less nicotine film...

..I can live with the thumb crease...

....a master set of Tex Carleton cards shouldn't take eleven years....the postcard-sized '34 Gold Medal Wheaties premium , from when he pitched for the magnificent world champion Cardinals , is dwarfed by the Rochester Red Wings Team-Issued ; that's from 1931 possibly 1932 ? Somebody out there knows. Very large item and obviously difficult to keep in decent condition for all these years. He famously pitched a no-hitter in 1940 as a Brooklyn Dodger.

..Top card is his 1936 issue from National Chicle , the "fine pens" set ;the horizontal is the new pick-up....the designation for the 1936 set is "R313" ....the Gold Medal Foods set is from two years earlier and is known as "R313A"...go figure...I love this hobby...
