Brian, very cool...I wonder if people leave Campbell's soup, in addition to flowers, over there

They certainly do as well as imitation purses and bags and a lot of other junk. I hate to rain on the parade, but I thought he was only technically good. I never thought much of his art. I always thought he was a twentieth century art version of PT Barnum.

Another late scanning of late August pickups - these are from a board member with help from an esteemed moderator. Thank you both.

While each one has an issue or three, the color, registration and eye appeal is generally really good... these scans don't do them justice.

Mostly Broadleaf backs, with a couple of Anonymous ones.

Glad it worked out Mike. I knew the other person would be in good hands.

Yeah, fair enough. Its a taste thing, in the end. I'm not a big Warhol fan, but I do like certain things he did. Ever see his Tom Seaver in Cooperstown?

Thanks Dan! Only one Cub left to go. Can you guess which one?

I found this old baseball cabinet of Thomas J. Donovan. He made it to the bigs in 1901. This cabinet would have been from his 1887-1888 seasons with the Meriden Bulldogs in the Connecticut State League.

Louie,

I believe I saw it. Still, I just never got into his work.

Now, back to the subject at hand. Cards. One of my favorite team:

Here's a 1944 Radio Scorecard that features the St.Louis Cardinals lineup on one side and the St Louis Browns lineup on the other. A neat oddball item that includes Stan Musial!
