Offered for your consideration is . . .#42 – EBBA ST. CLAIRE ~ 1953 Boston/Milwaukee Braves from the 1953 Boston/Milwaukee Braves set issued in 1983 by Robert L. « Bob » Parker of Waupaca, Wisconsin*The late Robert L. « Bob » Parker, who for many years produced postcard size card sets featuring his own cartoon artwork, produced a 33 card set in 1983 commemorating the 30th anniversary of the outstanding 1953 Boston & Milwaukee Braves. The Braves had drawn poorly in Boston for the ’52 campaign so in March of ’53 the move to Milwaukee was announced and effected. Thus ended baseball’s longest continuous franchise. The Boston National League club which had started out in 1871 was finished.Each card measures a slightly-larger-than-standard 2-5/8″ by 3-3/4″ necessitating 8-pocket collector pages for mounting or Vintage top-loader/Card Saver individual holders.Each card carries a nicely executed, in depth biography.THIS PARTICULAR CARD was purchased with cards marked « SAMPLE » on the front with advertising by the issuer on the reverse. (See the third scan for an example.) The reply address of those cards: Robert L. Parker, Post Office Box 10, Waupaca, WI 54981. In quick inspection of this card, we can see no way of distinguishing it from the later LFC reissue. The card offered here does not have Robert L. Parker’s address on the reverse.*This set was later reproduced by Larry Fritsch Cards (LFC).Condition: Excellent/Near-Mint Shipping OPTIONS are available – YOUR CHOICE of either eBay standard envelope service (ESE) which is cheaper with slower delivery or USPS Ground Advantage (more costly for single cards but much faster delivery). We also offer UNLIMITED singles (up to and including 8X10 inches in size) shipped via Ground Advantage for the one card rate. Both services include insurance but USPS Ground Advantage is considerably quicker, with fewer limitations. Postscript: Our last scan has nothing to do with this listing. It is a picture of all-time baseball great Ted Williams with The Baseball Hobbyist’s Steve Mitchell at a 1983 Connecticut sports collectors gathering – Ted’s very first-ever collector event. On the second day of the show « The Splendid Splinter » visited with collectors and dealers, graciously posing for this photo. (Photo was taken by fellow collector-dealer Bob Thing, longtime Maine hobbyist)._______________________Important: Shipping Information Our goal has always been to keep shipping costs low.
