I just checked - Grove was not in the book. There were only 32 Demaree’s pictured in the book; in 1986 there were not that many examples known and only a small portion of the checklist was known. There was a find in the 90s I think, that filled in a lot of the checklist.

Is Frank Slocum still around? It would be cool to learn how they assembled/photographed/compiled the images for the book.

Shanty Hogan is in the book, but not sure if it’s yours. Some of the white border margins look a little different.
According to the acknowledgments, the cards shown in the book came from the collections of Larry Yasger, Bill Hongach, Robert Lifson, Bill Himmelman and Renata Galasso and the Hall of Fame. |

Here's one of my Lefty Grove die cuts. It took me years to find one of these.

Love it, Brad! I checked out your website and you’ve got a great collection. Very cool that you’re related to Lefty.
This is a tough, tough set. I have a copy of The Sports Collectors Bible from 1979 and there were only 14 subjects known then. I think I read somewhere that Jefferson Burdick only had two in his collection. |
