Players wearing suits and ties on baseball cards

Post by the-illini on Thu May 08, 2008 10:51 am

One of my favorite things to collect are cards of players in suits on a baseball card. Post your favorites here!

Here are a couple that I own - Eddie Collins looking like a mortuary worker in the middle of the dustbowl:



And Cap Anson, heading out for a night at the theater:



One of the best for last, Rabbit Maranville looking like Bela Lugosi on his 1936 WWG:



Lets see your favorite cards of ballplayers in suits!!!

Cool thread! I don't own these - they're from Dave Levin's site - but the E99 Cutshaw has a sharp looking suit:

I can't find a scan of my Mohler, so I grabbed this one from Shammus' site...

Nice cards everyone.

Jeff, your Chesbro and McGinnity were speaking to me. Besides telling me that I'd never own them, they mentioned that the e107 set is a suit & tie goldmine!



(obviously not mine)

That '09 Obak is a cool card as well.

And a card which I "would never own", because I am unwilling to pay the price ..... until one day .... Zach mentioned this opportunity!

Thank you Zach! The plan went down as scheduled. I got this, then a less beater Lowe and a very nice Gehrig to complete my 4 HRs in a game "set".

In the "not mine and not a card but still cool..." dept.



I thought Keeler used a thick bat. Guess not.



Guess that I was mislead by my beater ... bad beater!

But I still owe you a suit, I guess.
