American League Publishing Co. (1908) ACC#: PC770
This very difficult set contains mostly Cleveland Indians players but also Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner and several team cards.
I think the design is fascinatingly modern for its day - it looks like something that could have appeared in the 1950s or early 1960s. The design is basically identical to another rare set, the Offerman Postcards of 1909, which feature players of Buffalo in the International League.
Note that the cards with the "Collister and Sayle" overprint contain a different back with a schedule, which arguably makes them an entirely different set, but I've opted to group them together since they're so hard to find.
One of the cards on this page is uncataloged, which suggests that there could still be new discoveries to make in this set. |
