Here's another set of cards not generally seen--the Topps
1951 Connie Mack's All-Stars. Now in our ebay store are
these two --Christopher "Christy" Mathewson, who was
an original Hall of Fame inductee in 1936, and Tristam
"Tris" Speaker, who was inducted the second year, 1937.
These were distributed by Topps in 1951, and are printed
on a medium weight card stock, about 2 inches by 5 inches.
The figures are diecut, meant to be folded out and stand up,
similar to paper dolls.
Unfortunately, there are forgeries out there. Things to watch
for in a fake Connie Mack's All-Stars card are heavier weight
card stock, non-diecut figures, and obviously hand cut edges.
Our image will enlarge if you click on it, but if you want to see
