Wow what a great collection my man! How are you going to display those in your house?

[BeanTown]

Congrats Orlando. Well done and in a short time frame. I would put those beauties in the bank box or safe as I couldn't relax having people in the house with them on display. What's your favorite one 1907 Cobb postcard? The Novelty is mine.

[Bicem]

Novelty is 1910.

No ALPC team card?

Great collection!

Try getting one of these. Its a real beauty.

That's a killer group! Nicely done.

Thanks Guys. I am partial to the Wolverine Pose. Kevin, I will defer to your expertise on the Novelty. It is labeled 1907, though I have heard rumblings that it could be a bit later. As for team cards, they just don't do it for me. Maybe one day.

Chris, what card is that??? Looks like an 1980's tribute cards that Dean's would sell for $2,459.00.
EDIT: wow, it is actually a 1910 card. I had never seen that one before.

I wondered if you got the Seamless, Orlando--terrific pick-up and card (might well have been mine had it come up two months from now!)--1925 Gehrig rookie, watch out, and may the Dietsche Fielding pose (meaning, "mine") and the Wolverine News Portrait (again meaning "mine") follow suit in value!!!

While I have heard the controversy re the date of issueance of the Novelty Cutlery's, I was not aware of any consensus having been reached. Is either PSA or SGC labeling them a 1910 vs 1907 issue?

Highest regards,

Larry

Kevin Struss has proven without a doubt that it cannot be 1907, a search of n54 and you'll find the thread. I can't speak for the grading companies.

Orlando, you have put together an absolutely fantastic collection is a relatively short periord of time. Congratulations.

I do not mean to hijack your thread, but since there seems to be some confusion regarding the PC805 Novelty Cutlery set, I thought that I would make a quick post.

There is quite a bit of evidence that the set was not produced until very late 1909, or probably 1910. There are a number of players pictured in uniforms that can be precisely dated to 1909. Also, the earliest postmark that I have ever seen for either a PC796 Sepia postcard or a PC805 Novelty Cutlery is 1910.

Lastly, the image of Cobb and Wagner is a very famous one from the 1909 World Series.
