Brian - There are a few different series of the Conlons. I have a few thousand broken up, although not in numerical order, and not all of the series.
Shoot me an Email of what you need, and I'll see if I can help you out. Keep in mind unless its players like Ruth, Cobb, Jackson
& Wagner, the commons don't go for too much that why few dealers carry them. So let me know what you need and I'll send any I have to you gratis Email Link ...jay

He needs a card from the last series #1300, mine only go up to the 900's.
Each year starting in '91 they made a series and kept on adding to it by increasing the card #'s...jay

I just ripped open a pack because this got my curiosity. Sorry to say, the 15 cards in the pack I opened are numbered between 340 and 648. Let me know if anyone is interested in these cards.

JEB.

#1300 is Paul Strand. I have it.
Send me your address and I'll mail it tomorrow.

Thanks so much. I will PM you details.

Thanks to everyone else for helping in the search.

One good suggestion when looking for a "stupid worthless" card, if you will, is to check the beckett marketplace (beckett.com). Lots of dealers there, and Beckett makes it very easy to upload large amounts of inventory. Granted you'll end up paying full book plus shipping most of the time, but it can be a great place to get those under $5 items where price isn't that big of a deal.

Good suggestion beefcake, I will check it out next time.

Big thanks again to mrmr for his help on this card. A very kind deed.

Really is great - I just punched it in after mentioning it, searching for "conlon 1300" and it came back with four different dealers who had the card for $.50-.75 per (two dealers had two examples). It's really a win/win for dealers and customers - a dealer can take a set that might be worth $5 in easily upload the whole thing to the marketplace to offer as singles, and the collector can get a card like that which he might otherwise spend hours searching for.

I received the card from mrmr. Again, a great big thank you for such a kind act!
