Normally these are wide cards with the photo and bio side by side. These are like more traditional cards with the bio on the back. From all of our research these had to have been altered to make them this way. Possibly folded in half and glued each half to a backing. They are thin, but deifintely thicker than two pieces of newsprint. What is amazing is how well these are done. 70+ years old and there is no separating or fraying at the edges, no bubbles in the interior. If these were hand made it was done by an artist! They look for all the world like a manufactured card. We obviously can't guarantee number grades on these, but these are cut very well and in EX-NM condition. Includes Wally Moses, Ferris Fain, Lou Brissie, Pete Suder, Buddy Rosar and Sam Chapman.
