In the 2011 SCD, they are all listed for $45 in Nr-Mt condition, with the exception of the following:

Earl Averill $275
Odell Hale $180
Chuck Klein $80
Red Faber $80
Al Simmons $80

There are a total of 19 cards listed in this set.

Yes Brad's info is the same set, but the values listed in the SCD are off.

The card I picked up I believe is from the set, as it is not the same pose as the common R313, and the Hudlin is not found in any other set I know of with the same type of design (ie. R313A).

Here is the auction, the card in question is the Hudlin on right. The Vosmik is a R314-3. Hudlin is not a part of the 19 card checklist Brad mentioned.

Hi Barry, I believe the Holland is in the minor league Minneapolis Millers Wheaties set, like Mikes pictured above.
The set Im referring to has no advertising, it is mostly a Major League set with players known from Clev, StL AL, StL NL, Chi AL, Chi NL, and 4 players know from Des Moines of the Western League. The checklist is at 19 known not including this Hudlin (if it is one... which I think it is).

To most collectors the cards look very similar to the far more common R313 "Fine Pen", or a R313A Gold Medal Foods (Wheaties) World Series (StL/Detroit) "Medium Pen" cards, and are often found mixed in with them.

I know Tim N. has a few of these.
Im sure someone here also picked up the Chuck Klein and Roy Hudson on eBay back in Aug 2010. They are the only 2 Ive seen on eBay correctly identified and they sold for good $$ ($220/$300) in VG


I'll post scans when it shows.

i'm eager to see your scans. I'm glad you got quite the good deal on these
rarities.

best,
