Baseball Matchbooks For Sale
$360 Offered is a partial set of matchbooks featuring 10 of 24 players from the series designated as Set U2 in the American Card Catalog. The set was produced in 1935 by the Diamond Match Company of New York City. It is the scarcest and most appealing of the handful of sets produced by the Diamond Company in the mid-1930s. Two Hall of Famers (Chuck Klein and Rabbit Maranville) are contained in this lot. All 10 players can be identified from the labeling on the fronts (see hi-res scans). The matchbooks are overall in above average condition with fronts printed in still vivid colors. All strikers are attached and intact. Two of the card backs display the familiar stain behind the striker, while two other backs show glue stains after being removed from an album. A Set Profile for the 1930s Diamond Matchbooks is provided on the Old Cardboard website.
$15 Offered is a matchbook featuring Virgil Davis of the St. Louis Cardinals. It is from the U1 Silver Border set produced in 1934 by the Diamond Matchbook Company of New York. The matchbook is in very nice condition with striker intact (see hi-res scan). It is the red background variation. A Set Profile for the 1930s Diamond Matchbooks is provided on the Old Cardboard website. | |||||||
