How rare is a set of the five postcards referenced in the ad Leon posted?

Thanks. It was a BIN on ebay for 82 bucks delivered, from a large dealer who is a member here. Thanks for the card, Steve!!

Wow, very cool! That’s only the second one I’ve seen available in the last several years. Congrats!

With the current interest in M101-2 high, I thought I might bring this back up. If anyone has any ad backs not listed here, it would be interesting to know what players can be added.

On a recent buying trip, we were connected with a gentleman who apparently had a "handful" of 1909-13 M101-2 Sporting News Supplements. After meeting our customer in person, we were extremely surprised to find 91 out of the 100 cards in the set, including every HOF besides Clark Griffith! Page after page, more names began to appear, like (Shoeless) Joe Jackson, Ty Cobb, Honus Wagner, Grover Alexander RC, etc. The condition overall was also extraordinary compared to other examples sold in the past. Our customer was gifted this entire collection from a family friend nearly 60 years ago, and he managed to keep them well preserved. The following video is a small highlight of some of the key stars we will be sending too
