How rare are 1928 Harrington Ice Cream cards

Bridwell · #1 02-20-2012, 04:00 PM

These cards seem tougher to me than I thought at first. I bought one as a type card on ebay and sent it to PSA. They said it was undersized or trimmed so they didn't grade it. Seems like they are often oddly cut, so they would be frustrating to collect as an SGC or PSA graded set. Another thing I've noticed is that they aren't sold very often. I'd say that advanced collectors have batches of raw cards stashed away in private collections.

Would a complete set of sixty f50s include a mixture of harringtons, sweetmans, yeunglings, and tharps?

Many of mine are cut funny, the grading companies are clueless about the issue par usual.
