~ Quite Scarce Old-Timers Postcard Series Card ~

#2 - Lawrence Eugene "Larry" Doby, Cleveland Indians & Hall of Fame (HOF)~ 1970 Old Timer Postcard Series by Sports Cards For Collectors (SCFC) ~ Scarce

Believed to have been issued in 1970 by Sports Cards For Collectors (SCFC), Precursor to TCMA

This tough-to-find, postcard size card is one of the first issues by Mike Aronstein's pre-TCMA business, Sports Cards For Collectors (SCFC). 

It is one of 32 cards in this set, measures 3-1/2 by 5-1/2 inches and is printed on solid, semi-glossy card stock. It's size will permit mounting in standard 4-pocket collector pages with full card coverage. The card backs display the word "Message" in the upper left with card number and "Sports Cards For Collectors - Box 371, Ossining, N.Y. 10562" dividing the message portion from space for the addressee. Postally unused.

This offer is for the one single card listed in the title and shown in scans.

The set of 32 is comprised mainly of star quality and Hall of Fame players with multiples of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig and features several interesting poses.

 Following is the complete list:

#1 Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig ~ #2 Larry Doby ~ 3 Mike Garcia ~ 4 Bob Feller ~ 5 Gus Wynn ~ 6 Burleigh Grimes ~ 7 Rabbit Maranville ~ 8 Babe Ruth ~ 9 Lou Gehrig ~ 10 Joe DiMaggio ~ 11 Ty Cobb ~ 12 Lou Boudreau ~ 13 Jimmy Foxx ~ 14 Casey Stengel ~ 15 Judge Landis ~ 16 Max Carey ~ 17 Wilbert Robinson ~ 18 Paul Richards ~ 19 Zack Wheat ~ 20 Rube Marquard ~ 21 Dave Bancroft ~ 22 Bobby Thomson ~ 23 Mel Ott ~ 24 Bobo Newsom ~ 25 Johnny Mize ~ 26 Walker Cooper ~ 27 Dixie Walker ~ 28 Augie Galan ~ 29 Snuffy Stirnweiss ~ 30 Babe Herman ~ 31 Babe Ruth ~ 32 Babe Ruth

Shipping OPTIONS are available - YOUR CHOICE of either eBay standard envelope service (ESE) which is cheaper with slower delivery or USPS Ground Advantage (more costly for single cards but much faster delivery). We also offer UNLIMITED singles (up to and including 8X10 inches in size) shipped via Ground Advantage for the one card rate. Both services include insurance but USPS Ground Advantage is considerably quicker, with fewer limitations.
