Circa 1939-1940 Cincinnati Reds

[todeen]

This era of Reds also saw numerous sets released. My favorite, that I'm collecting, is the W-711 set (1938 & 39, color). The set is small, think slightly larger than t206. However, there is also the Orcajo postcard set, same poses used in other sets, but black and white. There is also the 1940 Harry Hartmann set (b&w). There are also team released 5x7 pictures floating around.

If you have any of the sets other than the W-711, or W-711 that I'm missing, show 'em!

I'm a big fan of Powell Crosley's Reds. What a interesting team and these card are fantastic! The 38 & 39 W711sets are, in my opinion, very underrated.

Hi guys,

The people following this thread are the ones who can answer this:

The Orcajo checklist has two Whitey Moore listings, one with the correct photo and one with Bucky Walters' image. But one is much more common than the other, and I have seen contradictory listings about which one is which.

My sense from looking at the faces is that the Orcajo "Moore" pictured here is Walters, not the real Moore. Is that the way you see it?
