1921 Koester Bread cards
Posted By: Mark H
I saw this on ebay in a group of newspapers being offered; some friends thought this would be of particular interest at N54. It notes there are only 40 cards in the set, while 26 cards for each team exist (Yankees and Giants). The set was issued in October of 1921 to commemorate the first subway world series in New York. The newspaper this came from was The Evening Sun in Baltimore and was from a run of papers in the first 2 weeks of October, 1921. |

Congrats to your son on that great win. I had my very best experiences in organized ball as a 12 yr old and going to the Texas State All Star Championship. We stayed in the girls dorms at Baylor...it was summer though . I will never forget those times and I am sure your son won't either. This is the most important stuff in life, imho...My little 9 yr old girl is growing up way too fast. Back to On topic....thanks a lot for sharing this advertisement. This is the kind of stuff I most enjoy in the hobby..finding out about our cards and how they were distributed etc.......regards |

1921 Koester Bread cards
Posted By: Ken McMillan
I saw the paper on ebay also. I am confused about this set of cards and would appreciate any information on them. My Great Great uncle is pictured on one of these cards, and I was trying to find out how to identify this card from the 1922 W575 cards which are also blank backed. I have heard that the position of the Koester's Bread cards identified the outfield positions with the abreviation outf. I have also been led to believe that all of the 1921 cards abreviated the position with the actual position played (example C.F. center field, l.f. left field, r.f. right field). Do you know if anyone has a scan of the 1921 Koester's cards. My relative was Elmer Miller. I have a couple of cards that have been identified as Koester Bread (graded cards), but I am skeptical as to whether they are correctly identified. |
