There's something great about the oddball vintage Baseball cards that I love to chase. They are unusual and scarce, but can often be found for a song and a dance.
Case in point, I recently won the above card of Brooklyn Dodgers Bruce "Bull" Edwards for $3.00. It is a 1946-1949 Sports Exchange All-Star Picture File card.
This card was produced and sold by one of the hobby's very first publications, The Trading Post. Over a 4 year period they sold 12 different series of 9 to 12 cards through their magazine at $0.50 per series. They measure 7" x 11", are blank-backed and have been given an ACC card designation of W603. These cards are one of the first Baseball card sets produced after WWII.
