I know I'm late to the party on this thread but...
I have been trying to find the Callahan Hall of Fame set in the American Card Catalog but I'm coming up empty. It seems early enough and well enough known that Burdick should have been aware of it, if not for the 1953 release then by 1960 or the post death '67 edition. Does anyone know if there was an ACC number assigned to this set? Edit: I found the answer to my question from the Met Museum collection. They are cataloged as W576.

Since this thread is back, can't resist a chance to post a card featuring a HoFer who was playing left field for the Senators when he met his untimely demise:
Edward J. "Ed" Delahanty. Left fielder with the Washington Senators in 1902-1903. 2,597 hits, 101 home runs, and 456 stolen bases in 16 MLB seasons. 2-time NL batting champion. 2-time NL home run leader. 3-time NL RBI leader. 1898 NL stolen base leader. 1945 was inducted into MLB Hall of Fame. He debuted with the Philadelphia Quakers in 1888-1889. He had a career OBP of .411. He batted over .400 three times. His best seasons were with the Philadelphia Phillies in 1891-1901. He died during the 1903 season by drowning at Niagra Falls. |
