1967 Laughlin B/W World Series Assistance Needed

[JollyElm]

Hey Marty,
I can only speak for myself, but there isn't even an ounce of judgment in my use of the term "reprint" here. I am simply using it colloquially to refer to additional printings. Nothing more.

It was interesting reading the article you posted. Since I have discovered no fewer than ten cards (so far) from the set that have distinct differences in the artwork/layout, I wish I was closer to determining when the printings took place. Since the variations match the (later) 'no address' versions of the cards, there are two possibilities. Either Mr. Laughlin made changes to the artwork, and then printed the cards again (sometime after 1967) with the address on them, and at some point (1974?) printed them again after removing the address from the back...or he changed the artwork in the middle of the original printing of the cards, and perhaps had no additional reissues until the 1974 date. Both examples leave two versions of the ten 'with address' cards I mentioned. I wish I had a time machine so I could go back and ask him exactly when those changes to the graphics were made, but unless I win mega-millions on Tuesday, a time machine is probably still out of my price range. Oh well.

I am sure I'm just swimming against the tide here, but would now welcome anyone to post scans of ANY 1967 Laughlin World Series cards you have.

There's only one rule. Please indicate which cards have the address on back, and which cards do not.

Here is my set of cards. They all do not have the address on the back.

Let me know if you need scans of any particular card(s).

Thanks, Mike!!

How cool does the entire set look all together like that!! Frickin' awesome!!

Anyone else got scans to share? Would love to see anything you got.

Darren, my only example, with the address on the back :

Please, if anyone has more scans to show (just specify whether or not they have the address on back), post them. I have made some great progress with my research, but I undoubtedly need more examples (have seen everything on ebay) to look at. Please help a guy out.
