No, I’m not selling my collection.

[Howe’s Hunter]

After reading the listing, I asked Steve to see what cards had the Sweet Caporal back, as after collecting nothing but Howe’s cards since ‘93 or ‘94 I only knew of Piedmont, Old Mill and Hindu backs. He responded this morning that there are none with a Sweet Cap back (coulda’ told them that).

But they did double check and there are 12 cards with Howe’s green Agent-Saturday Evening Post stamp. So I had found five in almost 20 years, and now more than twice as many show up at once.

My hope now is that whoever ends up with the lot will either send scans or images of them all. I find it interesting that about 20% of my cards have a Hindu back and almost that many with an Old Mill back but mention of only the one Hindu made in the listing.

Someone send the link to the gofundme.

He sent an image of one of the 12 with the Saturday Evening Post stamp and it is much stronger/bolder than any of the five I’ve found.

And they are going to rewrite the description to make it sound less like I’m selling my collection.

Looks like the description has been already been changed, and all mention of the modern day collector of these stamped cards has been appropriately removed.

Guessing the price will soar now.
