Description: Theodore Roosevelt Background: I picked up about 25 cards from the Look 'n Set set at an antique shop around 1992. I sold a few singles last year. This one is the choicest of the remainder. Standard size, 2" x 3" (using a ruler for precision, 2 1/16 x 2 15/16). Condition: I'm not an expert on this topic. In my active card collecting years (long time ago) it was not a science. A card in excellent condition was a keeper, and there was no need to improve upon it. This card is in my estimation excellent/mint. I twirled it around under a desk lamp at different angles, and didn't spot any inter-crease, even along the four borders or defects to note. The color of the image is shiny and sharp on the picture side. I didn't spot any markings or blemishes. The four boarders are near top notch. Please go by the two pictures though. Winning bidder needs to add $3.50 for postage and tracking. Returns accepted. Postage cost on each additional winning is only 25 cents (wait for combined invoice-if needed). Guaranteed. More details are listed below. *I've been a collector since 1970. I learned about collecting autographs through columns in old trade magazines, such as The Trader Speaks and Newsreel. I've been selling autographed items on eBay for over fifteen years. Unless otherwise noted, each was personally obtained for my own collection or inventory. This was mostly via the mail route from 1973-95.*14-year-old exhibitor at the third and last annual Brea Show in 1971. (This SoCal get-together was a forerunner of the Nat'l Sports Collectors Con.) Member of the Universal Autograph Collectors Club (UACC) and Society for American Baseball Research (SABR). Contributor to SABR's ongoing Baseball Biography Project. Authored the 259-page book Baseball's Golden Half-Century 1910-1959 (published in 2007). Great nephew and sole researcher of Paul Martin, who illustrated twenty magazine covers for Collier's, played against B.Tilden and in three US Opens. I've been a subscriber and occasional advertiser to the major hobby publications, since the early 1970s. My full-page ads have appeared in Autograph Collector (later called Autograph Magazine). This includes the following older issues: Jun '90 p 37; Sept '90 p 25; Jan '91 p 35; Aug '91 p 19; Apr '93 p 7; Oct '94 p 32; Oct '96 p 87 etc. I was featured in Sports Collectors Digest in June 2022.*Customer satisfaction is of utmost importance! There's no need to be unhappy with a signed item. Rather, please return it insured and in the same condition received, for a full refund (less postage cost). I've never sold copies or pre-prints, only originals! Everything listed is guaranteed to pass JSA, PSA/DNA or R.Simon Sports without time restraints. But try presenting some verification of its purchase, like a copy of my listing or receipt. All items are sent out parcel post in a thick 6x9" (or larger) brown envelope, regardless of its value. Also with a tracking number. Insurance is usually standard on anything priced at over $99. Handling time is within ONE day of receiving payment (excluding Sundays and Holidays). However, I have NO control if the postal service is slow in its delivery. Parcels are often NOT scanned into the system locally (re. tracking). They occasionally are not even moved out of the local Central Processing Center for two or three days. My itemized sales receipt, will be sent out upon request (or one can make a copy of this listing).
