Do these items exist? Lets see visual confirmation!

Patrick, I've got one: a D381 Jennings. This card has been catalogued going back to the Sports Collectors Bible days, but I've never seen one and I don't know of any collector who has, either.

My suspicion is that the card does exist. It was likely Larry Fritsch who provided the info on this set and he was known to have a big group of them. Also, I think the Jennings card was issued only by Ferguson Bakery and not by Fleischmann Bakery, so like all Fergusons, it's rare. The Johnson card is another Ferguson-only card (along with Nehf and Tragesser) and it was never catalogued until it appeared on this site in a thread about 15 years ago.

If someone has an image, please share it!

I would love to see a image of a PC760 Rose Co. postcard of Tris Speaker.

Like Bill's example, the Speaker has been on checklists since the days of The Sports Collector's Bible.

Personally, I doubt that it exists since Speaker was not very well known when the set was initially issued in 1908. Plus, each of the 16 teams have exactly 12 cards in the "main" set from 1908 and all 12 subjects are known for the Boston AL team, BUT the Rose Co. did add a few players subsequently (Abstein, Isbell, Knight, McConnell, Oakes, Sebring, Spade, etc.), to their initial set of 192, so there is a chance that Speaker was issued. If he does exist, he would certainly be part of the "no team" series that was issued in 1909.

Hopefully Jerry S., the expert regarding the PC760 Rose Co. set, will chime in regarding whether this postcard exists.
