Show us a “ only one that’s known of” card

[quitcrab]

Does anyone have any “cards” or such, that maybe “the only one know?”
For example a fellow collector has a full 1960 Bazooka box with Clemente… and we are pretty sure or it’s highly unlikely another one exist.
I had at one time a 1960 Rawlings Advisory staff photo of Brooks Robinson Standing that fellow Brooks collectors have never seen that example. That could be 1/1.
Just curious what rarities are out there especially with player collectors.

Nice stuff Howard! I can think of two more items in your collection that are definitely one of a kind !

[Chstrite]

Here are a few:

[sflayank]

68 clemente disc and 67 clemente disc are identical
Therefore no way to tell the difference so def I nicely not 1 of a kind

1) There is a very slight cropping difference between the 2

and

2) The Clemente was cut from an uncut sheet I owned containing a complete set of the 1968 discs - which in part has a different player selection than the 67's

So I am 100% certain it is a '68. None of the other Clemetne discs I have examined match up. Possibly another out there, but as of now 1 of 1.

Only 1

I have no doubt that of course more were printed but I have never seen or heard of another of these still in existence, the album for the 1951 Hirsch Clothing and eight of the photos in the set, the small glossy card version of the Wilson Advisory Ernie Banks, and a 1963 Topps Philadelphia Phillies team card print error partially missing the border line. The 1963 Phillies team card is part of a recurring print flaw that affects all ten cards on the right edge of the uncut sheet. If I can think of others I have I will post them.

There should be more of these, but I’ve never found another single or the strip from which it was cut.

Wow. This two are amazing. I need both for Brooks. Always looking.

[bswhiten]

Other than proofs in my pc, these are my contribution.
I’m sure there are others out there, but I haven’t seen them.









Mick has at least 4 other only known examples that I wish I had

Perhaps a long shot here but I got this photo in a collection of “Advisory Staff” 8x10’s that i have stashed away and always thought it was a “standing” version of Brooks but it does not include the typical inset Rawlings logo BUT it has the same image as his color Rawlings premium and prominently features his glove.

Thoughts?

[Chstrite]

I have that same black and white Brooks photo. PSA would not grade. I am not sure why.

[Chstrite]

Not one of a kind but thought to share. Rarely seen.

I dislike you very much today for posting the '68

Charlie,

Doesn't your Brooks Rawlings photo example have the white box below with the Rawlings Advisory Staff notation and the Rawlings info.?

[abmchenry]

This is the only one I have...at least that I know of.
