R314 Type 4&5 on eBay

[cdn_collector]

On a side note, does anyone have, or can anyone direct me to a player/team checklist for the 39 Montreal/Toronto players? At some point I may expand my "pre-1920" collection to include some of the 30's b/w issues...

I don't have my OC back issues anymore and can't recall if there was such a checklist in Tim's article.

Regards,

Richard.

Man, someone broke my heart yesterday afternoon.

I can send you the 39 "Canadian" names later tonight, but if you can't wait until then, you can also get them from looking at yesterday's auctions, plus Shaughnessy and Chagnon.

I decided to take the next bus to school , so here's the checklist. The teams are based on my examination of Int'l League rosters for the relevant years, but I think they are pretty solid. O'Brien appears to be a trainer and Moreau some sort of club official or broadcaster-- can't assign them to teams.

How could anyone get rid of their old Old Cardboards?

Are these two the rare Type 5s? I can't find them in the checklists for the more common creamy set (the set with DiMaggio).

If they are Type 5s, they went for a lot less than the previous batch.

I just looked back at the earlier auctions and see that only a few of the cards of common players went for a lot of money. And the earlier Simmons and Cochrane both went cheap. Are these all really the rare type 5s?

[fkw]

Yes they are the very tough type 5's. All the auctions with "GOODEY" in title were duplicates sold by the same Canadian seller that had the near set a couple weeks back. I finally got a couple too.

In last month weve seen about 60-65 of these Rare cards on eBay, but usually its more like 5-10 examples a year on eBay, at most.


I believe this is the correct info below... (guides need to change their checklists)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
type5 has 12 different Detroit Tigers* known (maybe 13, Owen?)

Cochrane, Goslin, Hayworth, Rogell, Simmons, Walker, White are only found in type5 (photo is same as type1 but no "Litho in USA" line)

At least 2 of the Detroit players are found in type4 & type5 with similar poses but have very slight contrast/cropping differences
Gehringer, Greenberg, (Owen?)

3 of the Detroit players found in both type4 & type5 sets have completely different poses, so are obviously easy to spot.
type4 ... Bridges (throwing), Fox (batting), Rowe (throwing)
type5 ... Bridges (portrait), Fox (portrait), Rowe (portrait)
