Help with value - 1912 Sporting News Red Sox supplement

scooter729

Hey again,

I also came across this - it says "Supplement to the Sporting News, October 24, 1912." It's a picture of Red Sox manager Jake Stahl. Anyone have any idea of the value of this? I'm not expecting it'll break the bank, but figure it must be something, right? It measures just about 8 x 10.

Thanks,
Scott

I think this is a 1909 - 1913 M101-2 Sporting News Supplement issue. The Stahl in nm is $40.00, ex is $20.00 and vg is $12.00.
Hope I am not giving wrong info for you but I do think this is correct.
Good Luck,
Bob

Bob's about right- I picked up a few commons at the National last year for around $20 each- a bit better condition. I'd put yours around there.
Some of these go for a lot (Jackson, HOFer's, umpires, execs, etc) but for the most part they are relatively cheap, probably because they aren't cards. I like them a lot though, especially the ones that don't have an airbrushed background and show a bit of enviornment. Great to see some of the old wooden parks.

Great info - thanks for the assistance. That's about what I was guessing for value, but wasn't sure of the series of issue, so that's good info for me....
