Also if you know, can you tell me what the Japanese catalog number is on this 1949 era Dino Restelli card??? and maybe how many SF Seals players there are in it?

Hi, thanks Ralph,
Robert @ Prestigecollectibles is the Japanese card expert (he posted a couple times earlier in this thread), he actually just told me the Japanese Catalog number for the set above (JCM45) as I didnt know it yet, the front shows Dino Restelli and the back is Con Dempsey, its from 1949 like most of the other San Francisco Seals cards. There are many different types. Im far from an expert at these, but have owned at least 8-10 different kinds of Seals player cards from Japan, all from 1949.

I showed a couple of the Yakyu Shonen Magazine cards in the 1st thread on foreign cards, I put a couple more below


couple more example of SF PCL sets (no longer own these 2)

1949 JCM4 Roy Nicely


1949 JCM77 Dino Restelli (Robert, thanks for ID)


Yakyu Shonen (Youth Baseball) Magazine

1949 Yakyu Shonen JGA3 Bill Werle


1949 JBR13 Bill Melton

PS Robert, if you see a missed ID, please let me know, I dont read Japanese and dont have a catalog yet

@Gary- The Ruth card is from the 1934 JBR 48 series. Actually the postcard you have is mislabeled. It was part of a 40 card postcard set inserted into the August 1929 issue of Shonen Club magazine. See the image of the magazine.

@Frank - The Restelli card is from the 1949 JCM 77 Kagome set

I have this picture I saved from an auction a few years back of a 1949 Yakyu Shonen Magazine with the JBR13 cards inside.

Robert, thanks for the info. The postcard is labeled as 1928 in the 2010 edition of SCD's Standard Catalog, so if Mark Lemke is reading this thread, maybe he can fix it in the next edition. Unfortunately, PSA and SGC probably won't be re-labeling their flips.

It's "Bob" Lemke and he definitely reads and posts on the board. He is generally quick to fix small errors when pointed out.
