It is also interesting to note that the Capitol Candy & Cracker Co also had direct ties with the Pacific Coast Biscuit Co. So yes, I believe unknown cards are still out there...

Wow! That Thorpe card is very cool!

Hi Rhett, I had only seen a couple of those 1939 R-Unc. cards before you showed that group above. Very Cool!

One unusual thing I just noticed.... check out this Larry French card below that I had a scan of compared to the bright red one you have Looks like there are some nice variations in the printing/cutting on these...

Frank, that is interesting. I have 7 different of these and I have seen 1 or 2 randomly (inluding the French you posted), and the only other ones I have ever heard about are from this former Hunts lot (that went incredibly cheap, as nobody knew what they were looking at at the time.) Notice how my Stanley Hack and theirs share the same image but different cropping & coloring (just like the Larry French cards). These groupings are the only known "groups" that have been found to date. Also notice that all outside of my grouping have a pair of staple holes at top. We've discussed these before but they are very cool and apparently came from in-and-around the Chicago area.

Default 1939 R-Unc

Apologies to the rightful owner of these, as I do not own the cards, but I sure would like to get an example one day (preferably the Bruce Campbell in the center). I think this was maybe from the Hunt auction?

Don't forget the recently discovered D381 Ferguson Bakery Walter Johnson that was sold in Heritage's last major auction.

Default Obscure/Proofs/Salesman's samples

The more obscure sets have and will continue to see the most new players added, but where we might see some additions to more mainstream sets are in the area of proofs and/or salesman's samples, IMHO (although this might be outside the context of the original thread).

Very nice Mize, Rhett!

Regards,

Larry
