I got the scans of the pack Jim, but why did you say it was a Red Man tobacco pack ? No where on the pack even mentions Red Man. It is actually a pack put out by Favorite Chewing Tobacco Company, located in North Carolina which can be seen at the bottom of your package. Nellie Fox along with the other athletes all endorsed this product and that is why they are pictured on the front.

Just curious, what size are the Sawyer Biscuits? I am assuming they are larger than postcards.

Thanks, forgot to check their site. I only looked in the big book and they don't list measurements in the copy I have. Larger than postcards, so I need to add any new players to my list

a photo mounted in a redish type purple mount for a picture. Very tough cards to obtain. I had another large group a few yrs ago. The buyer will probably have some forsale for type collectors,team or player collectors. So all that e-mailed me,I will ask the buyer if he wants me to point them to him , or he can come on and tell you. There were many e-mails wanting these cards Mr Buyer.. Good luck.
