Most of my graded card favorites as it stands today.
I'm not adding much these days as I'm on a break from the hobby! There are great cards from my youth and many with a neat history! Great memories and fun for my enjoyment and anyone looking. When I can, I love adding cards with provenance!
Hope you get to browse and enjoy the cards below. Thanks!

10 T206 Hughie Jennings Both Hands Showing Piedmont 350 Back PSA 2 From the same collection as my T206 Christy Mathewson
Originally assembled by a former employee of the American Tobacco Company, presumably someone who worked at Factory No. 25 in Virginia, the cards were given to a North Carolina family as a gift in the first half of the 20th century. The collection had been passed down from generation to generation until it was hidden away for years in a cigar box wrapped in aluminum foil. All the cards in what is being dubbed The Factory 25 Collection are low grade since they were treated as children’s toys the past 70 or 80 years. Fortunately, many of the cards still retain white borders, boast bright and colorful images, and are well centered. I am fortunate to add this Mathewson Portrait from this fine collection.

22 1933 Worch Cigar Robert "Lefty" Grove PSA 3

24 The 1933 Worch Cigar set consists of 167 postcard-sized cards measuring 3-7/16” by 5-7/16” which were included in a promotion by the Worch Cigar Company of St. Paul, Minnesota. The photographs were pulled directly from the Minneapolis Star and St. Paul Dispatch newspapers, and were mailed out in envelopes bearing the Worch Cigar Co. name, though no advertisement is present on the cards themselves. The unnumbered cards appear in a number of variations with the player either a posed action shot or in portrait style. The player name is either written in full or as only the last name; appears with or without the player’s team in varying styles; and is printed among the background or appears in a white or black box. On occasion a photo credit can be seen. The set contains many Major League players as well as numerous American Associations players, highlighted by the Hall of Fame talent of Dizzy Dean, Wm. “Bill” Dickey, James Foxx, Lou Gehrig, Robt. “Lefty” Grove, Roger Hornsby (Rogers), Car...

122 1954 New York Giants **WILLIE MAYS APPEARANCE BROCHURE** Art Flynn Gem mint - Uncirculated
123 old & original 1954 Amazin' Willie Mays advertising brochure, issued by his agent Art Flynn!! Please see all three photos, as they are an important part of my description. This brochure is guaranteed to be vintage, and not a repro! It is a one sheet "fold-over" and measures approximately 9" x 4" in its "closed form" (see first pic). Agent Art Flynn & Associates had handled such other legendary athletes as Ty Cobb and Joe DiMaggio, capitalizing on their stardom and personalities for public appearances. The company's specialty was public relations and advertising. Their newest star was the "Say Hey" kid himself, a young Willie Mays of the New York Giants!! This very cool and colorful vintage brochure was printed on thick and textured paper stock, and is a blast to read through! Outstanding oddball baseball memorabilia!!
124 Condition: the offered brochure is in **GEM SHAPE**, with no creases, stains or tears.
