Lucas, how long had you tried to uncover this info -- months, years, decades?

Probably about a year total searching when I had time. Of real search time, I'd say probably about 3 or 4 days of actual time spent looking through newspaper archives online. An hour here or there at night.

That's a great set. At least you didn't have to go to St. Louis, find a public library, and go through their microfiche for three days. The internet has certainly made things more efficient.

The work people do for public access to digital newspapers is no doubt astounding. The time to scan and archive all of those delicate old papers is one of the largest and most time consuming tasks I've ever imagined. Big thanks to them!

Nice discovery, Lucas. Well done. I love the really rare cards, not ones with a low "pop" number. The ones I like don't have pop numbers!
