N 48 Dixie Cigarettes

Cards with numbers:
#1,2,7,8.

Cards with a position instead of number:

The Catcher, The Batter, lst Base, Stealing Second, Short Stop, 3rd Base and Pitcher which is like Card #8 but has "Pitcher" instead of number.

I have 11 different cards.

Hey Eric,

With respect to the N48 Dixies, when you say cards with numbers, do you mean numbers only and no position?

There appear to be several "types" of Dixies.

I have a number "4" with no position (see attached scan).

I have a "1st Base", a "Stealing Second", and a "Pitcher" all with no numbers (see attached scans).

I also have a "2" "The Pitcher" that is a lithograph like a Sub Rosa that is identical to a Sub Rosa except for "Dixie" in the square (see attached scan). It is a different pose than the "Pitcher" above. I've also seen "6" "Short Stop" and "7" "Catcher" in this version of a Dixie.

All of my Dixies have borders.

All of my Dixies are blank back.

Could you post some images of your Dixies?

I haven't yet had a chance to look through my Virginia Brights.

Best Regards,
Craig

This jumps the checklist ahead by leaps and bounds. Finally there is something tangible for collectors to refer to if they want to go after the set. A great gift to Net54.
