An exceedingly well cut card with a NM appearance but the adhesive has given up and while it is present the back is no longer attached to the front of the card. We have to assume it would not be eligible for a number grade. These aren't even truly a test issue as they were never publicly issued, but rather a few sheets (with 4 "sets" of 33 cards per sheet) left the factory and have since been cut up for singles.

Long-time friend of the company Carl Frysinger recently passed and made arrangements to consign his collection. With a collection that stretched from 1887 - 2022 and was as close to comprehensive as we've ever seen, he was one of the foremost Phillies collectors in the hobby. In his memory The Collector Connection will be donating 1% of our portion of the proceeds of the sale of his items to the Central PA Foodbank in Carl's name.
