I Hit The Jackpot With Baseball Sportstamps
Just got this 1936 scrapbook. Wow, it is LOADED with Baseball Sportstamps. Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, Jimmie Foxx, Bill Dickey, Carl Hubbell and on and on and on. 90% The Sporting News, 10% L.A. Examiner, a great many All-Star Sportstamps. 4 are loose with clippings, never glued in. There are 60, all total. The scrapbook covers the 1936 season. I've got a ton of old scrapbooks. Never came across one like this.

Hearst promotion?
Quote:
The Sunday Advertiser was indeed the Sunday edition of the Boston American. Most of the newspapers on this list I recognize as part of William Randolph Hearst's publishing empire. He owned 28 major papers in 1935, and I suspect all or most Hearst papers included Sports Stamps in 1936.

Congrats James! That is a find for sure. Every once in a while a person deserves to get lucky.
Your scrapbook looks very comparable to the one I obtained. It must have been the way to put scrap books together in 1936. I removed several of mine because I wanted to get the graded. They were pasted on the pages with a salt-like feeling substance and came off rather easily. I just had to massage them gently and they came loose. It also had every All Star in the book. In un-cut panels no less. I kind of wish I would have left it alone, but the Ruth and DiMaggio etc. sure look great in SGC holders! Read the articles - they are fantastic also. Congrats! Jim

But Wait! There's More...
Going through all the loose clippings in this scrapbook, about half the book is glued in, there's a huge amount of loose clippings. It's all very neatly trimmed, just never put in. Among all those clippings, 18 more loose Sportstamps...another Hubbell and Lazzeri, Charlie Ruffing, Lefty Gomez, Frankie Crosetti and a bunch of other Yankees and Giants. That brings it up to 78 Sportstamps, total.

No sir, out of 78 Sportstamps, no Hank Greenberg.

Do you think it is fair to say that, other than perhaps some of the special "ColorFotos", that these Sportstamps are the leading or most desirable newsprint items? It seems that clippings from newspapers just don't generate anywhere near the interest.

I would say these stamps have generated a lot of interest over the last several years. And I guess they took off a little more when the TPG's started grading them. CGC told me, at the National, they will holder them but are still working on their larger holders.
