Notebook Covers as Collectible Issues

[sporteq]

Hey, nice display of notebook .. IMO, i think notebooks are extremely under valued.
They don't pop-up as often. The conditions are not in great shape when they do decide
to be offered on ebay or elsewhere. I do believe they are more rare than cards, photos, etc.

have fun!

Here is my contribution...love this notebook cover.

We used to list several of the "sets" of notebook/tablet covers in the Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards, but when space got tight (all those hundreds of new issues every year!), they were dropped from the book.

Our data is still in the data base and someday when I get access to the data base again, I plan to update the checklists and add some new types. That way they can be added to the CD "version" of the vintage section if and when that becomes reality.

You guys convinced me
I needed a Collins piece for my collection and this one has my favorite pose of his. It will do me just fine until another of his Plow's issues come up for auction.

Bob - if you have a backup of those catalog entires in digital form, I'd love a copy.

Nice one Matt, was that an e-bay pick-up? Haven't seen that Collins before. Congrats,

Mike

Truly stradling the line. All it takes is some scissors and a Notebook becomes cards...

Dan - that notebook is fascinating! As an all star team, those aren't the players I would have expected - e.g. on the AL side, a heavy dose of Boston, Philly and Detroit and no one from Cleveland (Lajoie), or St Louis (Wallace).
