Well, the first two pictures in the thread are Topsy...

I went on a major hunt of old newspapers, advertising last year via the internet but could find nothing on Breisch Williams. The envelope of Leon is first thing I've seen otherwise.

Brian, you're killing me! GREAT CARDS!

Thanks, Dan. I appreciate it. My collection pales in comparison to some others here, but I don't let that bother me. Hobby happiness is finding cards that fit your collection. Some of my cards have about every technical flaw they could have, but I love them all the same.

Killing me also

Thanks, Joe.

I'll back off and let others post. I don't want to monopolize your thread. (probably too late!)

Let's see some more E107s guys!

JimB

What about E104-III? I don't think anyone even has a complete definition for what comprises a "set" there. Many on the checklist have less than 4 examples known and were otherwise uncatalogued until the 21st century.

Just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to post fella's........ VERY interesting stuff!

Does anyone out there have an image of a Type 2 Keeler you can post?

Size notwithstanding, I'm inclined to think your example is a Type 2. Not only is the color different and hand cut, the font is different than the Type 1. Note the alignment of the white spot below his vest buttons at the bottom of the portrait. It aligns with the "ld" in "Fielder" on the Type 2s and aligns closer to the "Fi" in "Fielder" on the Type 1. Keeler is one of the 9 players that have been found to have a Type 2.

I still love the card. I just think it is a Type 2 after studying it more.

I'm sure there are some board members out there that own some of the big name HOF's from this set. Let see some Wagners, Mathewson's, & Delehanty's?

I'll get my beater example out of the way before any others post their nicer ones.

joeadcock · #65 08-15-2011, 06:25 PM

Got some nice beaters.

Let's see your e107's, with that screen name you must be holding out on us!

You would think, right?

I currently don't own any E107's. When I first registered or the board around 8-9 years ago, I had a few low grade commons, but sold them.

I never updated my screen name though.

rustywilly · #68 08-16-2011, 01:48 PM

Great thread!!!

uffda51 · #69 08-16-2011, 03:01 PM

Brian, the Dineen card is my last E107. Used to have Flick, as you know, and Marquard and a couple of other commons.

sb1 · #70 08-16-2011, 03:26 PM

One of each, type 1 and 2. Note the team text diff. the Keeler with the piece cut off the bottom above is a type 2.

terjung · #71 08-16-2011, 07:02 PM

Beautiful Davis and Delahanty, guys!

e107collector · #72 08-16-2011, 07:21 PM

Scott,

I'm not sure if it's the scan or the angle of the picture, but it appears that the Type 2 on the right, has a more detailed and vivid image of Delahanty, than the Type 1.

Is this characteristic typical of a Type 2?

Tony

About the nicest looking 10 you will find.

No doubt, Darren! Great example!

bcbgcbrcb · #75 08-18-2011, 04:27 PM

Nice, Darren. About the nicest looking E107 you will find in any grade.......

joeadcock · #76 09-17-2011, 07:58 PM

Has anyone on the board ever soaked an E107? If not, anyone have any idea on how dangerous it might be to damaging the card?

terjung · #77 09-18-2011, 02:04 PM

I never have. I have thought about it, but don't have the guts to do it.

ls7plus · #78 09-19-2011, 03:06 PM

All of you guys are such a fountain of knowledge that I'm surprised to find that no one has posted in this thread the fact that the Huggins & Scott auction, closing 9/28 and 9/29/11 features six E107's: (1) Chief Bender, PSA
1; (2) Rube Waddell, PSA 1.5; (3) Socks Seybold, PSA 1.5; (4) Danny Murphy, PSA 1.5; (5) Lew Drill, PSA 1.5; and (6) Harry Davis, PSA 1; a veritable treasure trove of these toughies! Check out www.hugginsandscott.com. Hope some of you fellow net54'ers that need these cards get them.

Happy collecting,

Larry

PS: Oh, and by the way, to everyone who has posted scans of their cards, they are wonderful, regardless of their technical grade. When you have cards that are that tough to acquire, they are true treasures in any grade (I drool over the HOF'ers)!

vintagerookies51 · #79 11-07-2011, 09:19 PM

Just posted this in the pick ups thread, bu thought I'd ad it to the E107 thread too....

Andy Baran · #80 11-08-2011, 06:12 PM

....But these were my absolute favorite cards that I owned:

joeadcock · #81 11-08-2011, 07:11 PM

2 very nice cards Andy

h2oya311 · #82 11-08-2011, 08:49 PM

I know Brian just picked up a nice McGinnity (per the pick-ups thread), but I have to show my example b/c it's the only E107 remaining in my collection.

Brian was able to pry away my only other E107 a few months ago...

vintagerookies51 · #83 11-08-2011, 09:15 PM

Very cool card Derek!

sycks22 · #84 11-09-2011, 11:11 AM

Just wondering if anyone has ever seen one grade over a 60/5? I've seen the Young a couple times.

I'm not sure if one is graded over a "5", but according to the SGC pop reports, there is an E107 Wagner that graded a 50/ "4". Does anyone have a picture of that card? I saw the SGC 40 example in the Mastro auction back in 2007, and that was amazing, but just wondering what the SGC 50 example looks like.

There is a George Davis graded 5.5 by SGC

barrysloate · #87 11-09-2011, 02:27 PM

Isn't there a Plank graded PSA 8?

The second post in this old net54 thread seems to say so, but I can't find a scan http://www.net54baseball.com/archive...p/t-78360.html

and I don't know what auction this was in, but it sold for quite a sum. (5th one down) http://www.pcgs.com/Articles/Detail/2956

rainier2004 · #89 11-09-2011, 02:42 PM

Am I missing something? That looks like a t206 plank that sold? Here's mine, ....anyone recognize these?

Thanks for the info Cole. It's amazing that nothing better that Ex+ has survived from the set.

#91 11-09-2011, 03:56 PM

Great cards guys. It is a wonderful set. Out of my league but a great looking set.

Barry,

You are correct. There is a PSA 8 Plank out there. Mastro auctioned it off in 2000 or so, but it wasn't graded at the time of auction. I think it ended at around $30-$35K. There is no photo of it in their auction archives.

Tony

barrysloate · #93 11-09-2011, 05:00 PM

Tony- I think a board member and occasional poster once owned it.

terjung · #94 11-09-2011, 05:07 PM

There is a PSA 8 Plank. PSA actually lists it as an 8Q. I don't recall the reason for the quailifiation... perhaps a mark.

Anyway, it resides in a fantastic, seldom seen collection.

shammus · #95 11-09-2011, 06:20 PM

Several years ago I made a run at a Type 2 set and got pretty close. The Tenney always eluded me though. I finally picked this one up recently thanks to a board member. Just a brutally tough card to try to find all the way around and a nice one to cross off the very top of my wantlist, even if it is several years removed from me seriously collecting this set. Not sure I'll go after other e107s (would like to) but it's nice having this one around in my collection as a type!

tenney-001.jpg

terjung · #96 11-09-2011, 06:25 PM

Really tough card. Congrats!

joeadcock · #97 11-09-2011, 07:23 PM

Nice card Brian

thestump08 · #98 11-10-2011, 12:12 PM

That Plank card is great. Are the E107's available very often or is it a hard set to come by? I don't have much knowledge on the set.

It's a pretty rare set. Even poor-condition commons can sell for about $1,000. I think most of the HOFers have less than 20 known to exist, but I'm not sure. Someone else will be able to provide more information

There's a pretty decent answer on pg 2 of this thread.....
