I recently was reviewing the checklist for the 1912 zeenut set, and I realized there were 3 cards of players, who were catchers, which I don't recall ever seeing an image of anywhere.

Clarence Brooks (LA)
Ralph Kreitz
John L. Sullivan

Anyone have images of any of these players?

Lets see lists of other cards that fit this criteria.

This is Ralph Krietz in the Oakland jersey.

Super rare William Patterson Babe Ruth

I still have no idea who issued this Dominican Winter League card but both Willie McCovey and Juan Marichal played in the league the same season and may even have pre-rookie cards of their own:

You don't get to see a card with this much front damage normally.

The complete set of these Wheaties-sponsored Jack Armstrong Radio Program premiums is just 8 ; five hot-name baseball players , two midwest football heroes , and Patty Berg , one of the best all-around female athletes of that pre-war era ( she really was ). 1940 or 1941 is an educated guess --- I've been looking for a mailing envelope for many years.

I have only seen a picture of this card from the Metropolitan Mueseum of Art, which is Type 1 of the "0" numbered cards which is the top picture. The Type 2 "0" numbered series is mine. I don't remember seeing at least one of these for sale recently.
