1953 Laval Dairy Baseball Cards question

Came across a few of these recently. Will PSA grade these minor league baseball cards? I do see that they have graded the 1951 Laval Hockey Cards. Anyone know how many were in this set? Can't find much or any info on the baseball cards.

    I'm sure PSA will grade them. Sounds like an interesting set.

    I found a 1952 Laval Dairy Provincial League - total of 114 cards - Nm 2800$ Common player Nm - 35$;
    Nobody special in the set - highest value card is Hector Lopez at 60$.

    The minor league issue includes only players from the Class C Provincial League, centered in Quebec. The cards are blank backed and measure 1 3/4 X 2 1/2". Are the cards in French? The teams represented are the Quebec Braves, St. Jean Pirates, Three Rivers (independent), Drummondville Senators, Branby Phillies and Ste. Hyacinthe Phil. A's.

    I've had interest in those Laval cards, both baseball and hockey, because it's my wife's hometown. She doesn't remember the dairy, but the cards predate her by more than ten years anyway.

    Mike: French and English.

    I would say these grade NM. I have John Malangone( Yankees de T-Rivieres) and i have 2 of Joseph Janiak (Braves de Quebec) and all three are in French. I'd like to see somebody try and put this set together... The last batch i saw of these on ebay awhile back looked like somebody washed them with their clothes. I haven't seen any since.

    My bad, these are 1952 by the way not 1953. Card #96 and (2) # 8.

    All three are commons at 35$ Carew.

    But when it comes to these kinds of cards, I think you can throw away the book - especially if you get them graded.

    good luck

    I thought I remembered seeing some hockey cards in french and english - are the baseball not bilingual or do I just not remember those hockey cards correctly?

    Hi Mark
    Hope you had a great holiday!

    The Krause Standard Catalog has the baseball listed in French.
