has anyone figured out a good way to display the larger 16x10 cards without damaging them? the standard size fit perfectly into a single pocket album page.

James M., i have mine in regular frames, just fit them in and with loose backing so no damage. It's a pain but possible.

PSA does not grade. I think BGS did, perhaps folding them over?

i store the "non-large" m101-2s in a rigid holder that then fits into an Avery album page for binder viewing. Adds extra support and lets me see that oh-so imporant blank back

Here are a couple of mine. PSA grading on these is just stupid. Mine will not show up in their holders while I'm still breathing. I did buy a couple of commons in Beckett holders, and am waiting for someone to lend me a jackhammer so that I can release them.

I only won 2. Prices for rough 'n raw on some might seem high (especially vs. year ago) but some were real bargains.

It is wonderful to see Sporting News supplements getting their due. I love how Doc Steen referred to them as “rotogravure photos.” Imagine being able to find those old printing plates today!

Wow, amazing piece and provenance!

The importance of Bill Carrigan to baseball and Babe Ruth in particular can’t be overstated…

‘The most important event of the 1914 season was the purchase, at Carrigan’s urging, of pitchers Ernie Shore and Babe Ruth from Baltimore of the International League. Although Ruth gave his skipper a lot of credit for his development as a player, Carrigan was humble in his own assessment: “Nobody could have made Ruth the great pitcher and great hitter he was but himself. He made himself with the aid of his God-given talents.” Old Rough did allow that his protégé needed quite a bit of discipline, and Carrigan was there to provide it, even rooming with Ruth for a time. Carrigan caught Ruth in his pitching debut, on July 11.’
