1959 Dad's Cookies

1949 Lummis

1955 Exhibit PC back w/Mutoscope Line

1955 Exhibit PC back with plain line

Three high Star Call Decal

and many more.

Last thing I know of that I need is an Ashburn Felin's Frank.

This was never issued and when a "find" turned up at the printer's years ago Ashburn was not included. Although I do have a newspaper ad proof showing his card.

Anyone have one? Help a guy out!!

Hi Fred,

Were you the one who just purchased the Ashburn Dixie Lid salesman sample on EBay? If so, great pick up! I've never seen a Dixie Lid salesman sample before.

After collecting all kinds of golf cards for the past 30+ years, I have settled on Ben Hogan cards. I currently have 125 of the 259 that I know exist.

If you have anything to offer, please let me know.

Impressive collection of Chase. Wow!

Hi Mike:

I assume you are talking about a Dixie PREMIUM Salesman Sample? If so, no I did not win it. I know who did, but I already had it.

If you are talking about a Dixie LID Salesman Sample, I missed it. If so can you send me a link to it?

Thanks,

Fred

Very nice, Jay.

That SC 350/25 stumped me for a long time, too...

I have a different kind of player collection. Both pre-war and modern cards. I collect any player from any sport with their first or last name of Hogan in any sport. I have quite a few different of Frank (Shanty) Hogan.

That is cool, I have a Jay North collection. A couple of the 1/1 proofs are customs I made to complete the rainbow. Hopefully I can find the real ones some day.

[DHogan]

Very cool.

Hulk??

[DHogan]

No Hulk Hogan. He's an idiot.

[cdn_collector]

Wow, that Chase collection & display are awesome.

George Gibson makes up close to 90% of my collection for sure.
Here's one I don't post often (rest of my collection linked to in my signature):



Cheers,

Richard.

Good morning Fred,

You are correct, it was the Dixie Premium salesman sample, not the lid. Sorry about that. Still a great piece!

While my collection pales in comparison to others, Nate Colbert is my guy.

Haven't heard his name in a while. What a beast he was. Powerful.

I love Nate Colbert, too. I don't collect him, but he was a beautiful person. The only 1971 Topps Greatest Moments I have left is Nate. --- Brian Powell

"I never had a bad day in baseball,” said the soft-spoken Colbert decades after retiring. “It was, I woke up, I wanted to go to the ballpark. I liked playing every day. I didn’t need an offday. I played with a bad back, broken toe, fractured wrist, and concussion. I played. I just played, because I figured I’m going to hurt anyway, so I might as well play.
