Show Your One Of A Kind Item

[bcookie]

what do you have in your collection that is so rare, you might be the only one with a copy?

[Ladder7]

you first

[Leon]

We don't have enough time in the day since this is what I collect (till another gets found then I lose my ass). So far I haven't found anyone that has seen more of any of these from this set, 1941 Montreal Team Issue. I would have to guess there are some out there and we'll eventually see them. I think these cost around $25 each so it's not a huge deal, but they are still quite rare and one of a kind as far as I know.

I think Ive seen another 1948 Bengamin Franklin Half dollar before
Hope you dont lose your ass to bad on that one.

It shouldn't go below .50 . Actually, I think I paid about 20 bucks for it but it's pretty nice.....

Gotta feel for a guy named Ed Head . . .

Isnt this kinda the same as your toughest card?

Maybe, but it's sort of akin to 2 T206 threads. Our T206 collectors don't complain about too many of those threads. I will be darned if I complain about type-collecting or scarce card threads.

[calvindog]

Fantastic card.

[cmcclelland]

I have never seen another one of these, so I like to think it is one of a kind. Anyone else ever seen one?

[barrysloate]

Hi Colt- it's a nice trade card, but I've had at least a couple of them over the years. I always did like it though.

I have a number of 1/1 cards, mostly boxing. Here are some ones from various eras and sets that interest me:

1929 A's premium I picked up at the National. I think it was a soda mfg.:



1904 Sporting Life Munroe-Jeffries 2-sided cabinet card:



Coney Island Arcade Lou Gehrig:



Early 1930s Adam Hats Cards:

Red Dutton [Hockey HOFer]



H815 Adam Hats Jake LaMotta:



1920s W-Unc. Ty Cobb--I've seen a few others but they've all been 1/4 of a 4 on 1 Exhibit card, not a real strip card:



1960s Israeli Cassius Clay card [says "Cassius Clay [Boxing]" on the front.

I was just informed by a forum member that he has 12 of those 1941 cards I showed in the first post with cards. He doesn't have the Ed Head one though...so I guess it could still be considered unique. I have never seen another one of these cards yet.....

[ErikV]

Here's another Buck Weaver: W514 (Mother's Bread) version.
I hear there might be another, but unconfirmed.

Here's a Jimmy Claxton Ticket from later in his career, pitching semi-pro ball in Reno, Nevada (played for Scott Motors 1933-35, 32 game winning streak 1933-34). August 4, 1935 Scott Motors of Reno 2, Round Mountain 4.

[Runscott]

As would be expected, close to 100% of my cabinet photos. This one is probably my favorite, having traveled through the collections of several cabinet photo collectors on the board:

The legend on the backs: "The most modern and well fitted manufacturer in the colony, powered by electricity. Careful manipulation of tobacco. Products selected. Manufacturing unrivaled."

Were Ed Head and Dick Cox related?

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

T206s and one of a kind don't really go together.

There is a slight offset double print of the OM ad, haven't seen another. Maybe not one of a kind.

[uffda51]

Can't say for sure but have never seen another.



Ditto.

[Exhibitman]

Wow, Bruce. Just "wow". That Duffy cabinet--and I say this with an unblemished record of heterosexuality--is fabulous.

1921 herpolsheimers geo. burns

T206 moeller with drum back---if there's another out there, i'd love to know.

all the best,

This is a cabinet of a couple Jersey City Skeeters in Bermuda for what I assume is training. Along with stamped back T206's I also collect Jersey City baseball items from the deadball era and I was lucky to snag this on eBay years ago for a steal. The mount is in terrible shape though. But I think this would be a one of a kind piece.

Thanks,

Love the Duffy Cab, Bruce; and those Portland Beavers Photos are fantastic, Ramram!

[leftygrove10]

I don't show this one often, but I have shown it at least once before. It is one of a kind for sure and I am certain that nobody else has one!

[Rob D.]

Signed T206 Mike Donlin. Signed by me, but definitely one of a kind.

Here's my son with Pete a few years back when he was a coach with the Lincoln Saltdogs...a heckuva nice guy.

A recent pickup that I can not find another example of.

How do you know it's not real? Either way, that's an endlessly wonderful piece!

[ephus]

I like to think this is a one of a kind. Dockman and Sons printed several "card" items for their candy. One card type they printed was a series of animals. Imagine opening a package of candy hoping first of all for some great tasting candy and then secondly hopefully a picture of a Hippo, Monkey, or a Giraffe. Instead you find a Honus Wagner!!
I have seen a McGraw like this, but not a Wagner.

[doug.goodman]

I'm pretty sure I've shown this before, but I still love it...

That's hilarious. I have the same one...with me of course!

[Andy Baran]

Never seen or heard of another.

[milkit1]

possibly one of a kind?

Possibilities ?


These two T206's (Herzog and Lake) do NOT appear in either the PSA or SGC pop reports, so are they "unique" ?


..


This T206 Jennings is not in the PSA pop report. It's the only one listed in the SGC pop report.....therefore, is it "unique" ?

..



Hey guys, I know better than to claim that these three above T206's are "One Of A Kind".....but, until other examples surface, I like the sound of that.





OK, now for the cards in my collection that I think are "unique"...........


1904 Buffalo Bills Team card ...... I've had this beauty for 24 years and have not seen another one.







T205 Collins

..







1949 LEAF Billy Johnson / Mizell Platt ( drunk printer on the midnite shift )


1969 Mickey Mantle color printing error (blue instead of gray) ...... I've had this card since the 1980's and have not seen another one like it.
