Yep - I do, per my earlier comments (March 2018 post); Richard "Dick" Houston was a star at NMFC (then a VFA Team) in the 1880's/90's and this card forms one of the suite of 11 Aust. Rules footballers. These 11 are a subset of the 76 known different cards (inclusive of a known/recorded variation...
Insurance is problematic as most companies who will insure collections will only do so if they have been assessed by a Licensed Valuer, who then charges a % of the value of the collection as their fee (and I've heard this can be as high as 15-20%!) You are better off having the collection, if it...
Without doubt, this one - not recorded in any Cricket reference book & made in the U.S.A. c1910 - a fabulous addition to a pre 1920/21 collection, that now stretches to three folders of cards - rare as...
Great oversight of the Don's material....
Couple of corrections...
- 1939 Timaru Milling card is not a Tasmanian product - produced in New Zealand
- Sugar Products produced 1934 before the Ashes commenced (players from the later Tests missing from 29 cards known to exist)!
(& thanks for the...
G'day all,
Its a longshot asking I know, but I'm seeking the last few signed Australian subject cards to help complete my set of signed 1965 Scanlen's Cricketers (I have a NM set of 40 unsigned & 34/40 signed), but am looking for a signed #6 Neil Hawke, #9 Wally Grout & #18 Graham McKenzie (as...
Yes - that is the correct reverse for the #2 Card in the 1931/32 Bradman's Records Series 1 issue...
Good luck finding it (& also be aware that there are two different cards at #17 and #18, so despite the series being numbered to 18 there are actually 20 different cards to find to complete the...
This is likely to have been cut from a proof sheet - printed on a single side for the Client to see the sample layout of the finished card front - although a relatively common card this is a rarish piece
The 8 are a'Beckett, Andrews, Bettington, Hooker, Ironmonger, Kelleway, Nothling & Scott. You should also note there are two distinctly different issues of the a'Beckett card (One with him depicted from the hips up and another from the thighs up, with the margin between his head and the top of...
The value of this card is a real moving target as Bradman card prices have skyrocketed over the past 12 months and I've seen a VG examples of this card sell online (eBay) for >A$1000, which in my opinion is way more than what it's worth! (I sold five of them overseas just over 14 months ago for...
G'day, I can help you in your pursuit of early cards & price other cards i you wish. I have an extensive collection of pre 1980 Australian & English Cig & Trade cards and also have accumulated Research Material and notes on them over the past 20 years in addition to maintaining a digital...
Ha - we are all looking for the same card in VG+ condition (> 10 years for me) - it's one of the rarest Bradman issues, but Schneider is probably rarer!
Last VG+ one I saw went at a Melbourne Auction for $850+ Comm two - three years ago (over a Grand!!!) - I have a crappy one and am hanging...
Yep - got four stock Albums of spare pre 1970's Cig & Trade cards - one is all pre WW1 Australian Wills cards (1901 - 1911's) & happy to help with 1965 Scanlen's Spares also - have 16/40 spare. Am located in Melbourne and email is: [email protected]
