Rodney Dangerfield Cards

[ullmandds]

Poor Rodney...he got no respect...like him there are cards/issuers that just don't get the respect they deserve.

Because I live in Babe Ruth land...I propose the r315, Oversized...yes. But a scarce uniquish pose of the bambino tough to find centered

Name some others!

Back stamps in general seem very unpopular.

W573 cards. Same as the E120 American Caramel set, but with a blank back, and in my opinion more attractive due to its strictly black and white photo presentation, in comparison to the sepia and green overlays in the E120 issue that I believe often detract from the image (E120 seen 1st and 3rd cards of top row in scan below). And there even is a thicker cardboard version that was NOT hand cut and has nice, full, oversized borders (the 2nd and 4th cards on bottom row).

Brian (my brand of collecting is pure Rodney Dangerfield)

Are those graded cards in the image for scale? If so, that Ruth is more than just oversized...it's a behemoth!

I feel like H. D. S. & Co Gum cards, or "Scrapps" as we have incorrectly come to know them as, are the Dangerfield of 19th century cards. They are fairly scarce, but still pretty attainable due to the lack of interest. Both team sets have some great HOF names in them and they present really well.

Gets the silent treatment when there are other Ruths in the room:

Sad, but true. I've always liked that card due to my fascination with elite players switching teams in their twilight playing years. That one is a great 2, very nice centering as well.

Yes! However, the small picture puts it second fiddle to Tom Barker.

I bought my first Wagner recently in the Polo Grounds set.

Wheaties from the 1930s. What’s not to like? Beautiful cards of Gehrig, DiMaggio, Foxx, Grove, etc. ok so they’re hand cut but so are strip cards and many other issues.

The 1935 Gehrig is extremely undervalued, get one before prices take off!

1934-36 Diamond Stars. Even the grading companies disrespect them by mis-labeling them. 34's are often labeled as 35's, etc. And they never sell for anything near what Goudeys go for.

I agree with the Diamond Stars. On the 1935 Goudey Maranville's, they've always seemed too pricey for me.

Ha! Even in a thread about cards that get no respect, the Polo Grounds Game Cards are playing second fiddle.

That sounds like the epitome of a Rodney Dangerfield card.

Wow.

These definitely get the Rodney Treatment

Dodgeball cards get no respect, like this '48 Bowman Jack Garfinkel card.
