did not realize tongue-in-cheekness of said comment. All good....

sorry, just come here to unwind and relax and enjoy the hobby, and am getting tired of negative comments all around lately (grading sucks, PSA sucks, that autograph sucks, etc.). My bad.

For the record, I don't mind trade cards being called baseball cards. The Peck & Snyder trade cards being called baseball cards does not offended my senses. Though I understand some are using the definition of baseball cards as being 'trading' cards-- meaning, cards that were meant for the general public to be collected. I understand that reasoning.

It should be noted that the Peck & Snyder CDVs, as opposed to the trade cards, were sold to the public via the catalog. I would think they'd fit the definition of trading cards.

Reccius actually went for a lot less than I thought it would ($21.4).

Apparently, Honus Wagner's rookie and Ozzie Smith's rookie are worth about the same. Makes sense.

I think the fact the Reccius has never been positively and empirically dated has hurt it's value. If an exact date gets discovered it's value will increase. Still a great card and fortunately, the way it's dated now, it falls a bit out of my collecting focus. (thank goodness as 21k still isn't too cheap)

Default Date of card

I also did quite a bit of research on the card date at the time Hal purchased the original find. I had passed back then because I was convinced in was issued after his days in Pittsburgh, not during his playing days in Louisville. Nothing I have seen has changed my mind. Still a great item!

Hey Patrick
Nice to see you around and hope you are well. Our thoughts are quite the same on this card. I was speaking with a very advanced collector, and board member, about this card last night. Same type sentiments were echoed.

"I know that a lot of research was done regarding the actual date of issue of this card. Can anyone fill me in on the latest?"

I posted the above question twice early on in this thread and no one had any opinion or even acknowledged the question (except one individual who referenced that info was available in the Net54 archives, of course, if I was able to find that info in the Net54 archives, I would not have asked the question). It seems that everyone has a lot of opinions now...........

If the exact date is confirmed I think the value will go down. I'm pretty confident it's an early 20th century issue and not a rookie card. Still rare and neat, but not issued in 1897.

IMO it really depends on what exact date, if it is ascertained, it dates to. If it predates his E107, or is 1903, the value would increase. If it is later it will probably decrease....again, just my opinion and that's all it is. I don't have ESP.

Trade cards seem to have phased out in the late 1890's.

I personally think that it is from 1897-99, but it would be nice to be able to definitively date it.

Another 1897 trade card example would be that of the Page Fence Giants. I do not remember seeing similar trade cards that were issued circa 1910. I think that they had been replaced by other mediums, such as postcards by then.
