Not Your Standard Vintage Find...

[letsgocapitals]

Hi folks,

New poster on this forum. I actively post on Sportscardforum and Hobbyinsider under the same username.

I won't say how. But I found a gentleman advertising A LOT of vintage 1909 and 1910 cards online. I found the gentleman, offered him cash, and now have well over one thousand cards, most of which are in very good (my terminology) condition.

There's no baseball cards. But there are track and field, boxing, military, animals, cowboys and indians, flags, etc. There is more stuff than I can wrap my brain around.

I've cataloged the sets; and the list below is what I came up with (with the exception of a few randoms I can't pinpoint). I know this forum is for sports cards --- so I bolded the sportscard sets below. I think I got all of em!

If you'd like to see scans and/or know how many I have from each set, just let me know. Any information you can provide is appreciated. Some scans are located here ---http://www.sportscardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1629399 . My apologies if you don't like links to other boards. If it's a problem, I can add in scans here.

I'm very excited about the find. And it has already generated some interest from a few prospective set buyers.

No feedback in this thread. But plenty of emails and quick sales.

If anyone is interested in any of these sets, let me know. That is, with the exception of the boxing cards. Thank you.
