Baseball Stamps For Sale
$1600 This 1913 stamp picturing Ty Cobb comes from an exceedingly rare set of which little is known by today's vintage collectors. The stamps measure about 1-3/4 x 2-1/2 inches and have blank backs. There are noticeable signs of wear and creasing visible on the front and back of the stamp (see high-resolution scan for detail). Overall, however, a very rare and appealing addition to any collection. BONUS: Several cards of non-sports subjects (virtually unknown to baseball collectors) have been added to this auction as an added bonus. The subjects on the four stamps are: Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, Indian Chief Regan-Pa, and the American Army. The condition of the four non baseball subjects is about the same as the Cobb card shown here. Further details about this 1913 Baseball Player Stamps are provided on the Old Cardboard website.
$1650 Offered is a very obscure and highly sought 1927 stamp featuring Babe Ruth. It is part of a series cut from the Winnie Winkle section of syndicated Sunday newspaper comics. The stamp is one of a series of ten stamps; all are now in the baseball Hall of Fame. Backs are printed with random unrelated content (from the opposite side of the newspaper). This Ruth example is meticulously hand cut from the newspaper and displays beautifully without any creases, stains or other significant flaws. A very minor "scrape" along lower edge is visible in high resolution scan of stamp front. Further details about this 1912 Baseball Player Stamps are provided on the Old Cardboard website.

The complete set of 30 stamps featured in this set were all printed in bright colors on a 5-by-6-stamp perforated sheet.

Notably included on the inside front cover of the album are images of 10 Yankees players (including Joe DiMaggio) who were at the time actively serving in World War II.
