Even though I sold most of my remaining red man sets and cards, I do still happen to have some great 1950's red man tobacco baseball cards and memorabilia. Included in my little collection are some interesting items that I have picked up along the way. I still have a small number of other high grade red man cards. The 1953 Stan Musial is from Ron Goldberg and a favorite of mine. In this album, I will include photos of a number of different autographed red man cards and the red man caps that were obtained from sending in fifty of the bottom tabs with an order form. Thanks to Dick Cianciotto for a number of the Sgc/Jsa red man autographs. They look great! My caps are also from Mrredman who acquired these over the years while collecting red man memorabilia.
Four red man cards were from my dad during the 1970's at a New Hope, PA flea market in Peddler's Village. Never got rid or lost them! I decided to grade them as I thought it would be neat to see what I thought mint cards would grade. See the end for results. Not good. Lol!
The signature cut cards were made by Doran Connell from the CU message boards.
The four raw red man cards I picked up in 2012 from Conte's Card Castle in Haddonfield, New Jersey. Owner, Anthony Conte, was extremely helpful and had a fair amount of vintage cards in his brick and mortar store. Cool guy with a cool name and so close to home too!

35 1950s Advertising Pamphlet Pair w/Mickey Mantle, Johnny Mize & Stan Musial
36 Attractive pair of advertising pamphlets for Rawlings Sporting Goods and Red Man Tobacco. Includes the following: 1) Red Man Tobacco Pamphlet: 4" x 7" pamphlet featuring Johnny Mize on the cover, with a free baseball cap offer inside. Outer panel has an 1956 date stamp and an order form where customers could choose a Red Man cap by redeeming the coupons at the bottom of the cards (and ruining their condition for collectors 50 years later). NM condition, some age-related toning the only flaw. 2) Rawlings Sporting Goods Pamphlet: 3 1/4" x 6" pamphlet that unfolds into a 13" x 12" flyer promoting various player-endorsed sporting goods. Players include Mickey Mantle, Bobby Lane, Kyle Rote, and Stan Musial. Appears NM, though one panel is tearing away at the fold when opening the pamphlet to full size, and a second panel is beginning to tear at the edge. Two pamphlets total.
