723. 1921 Baltimore Orioles (TipTop Bread) Group of (13) SGCGraded Cards—Only GradedExamplesThe 1921 Baltimore Orioles laid waste to theirunfortunate competitors in the InternationalLeague by winning 119 games and besting theirnearest foes by twenty games. With a winningstreak that once reached 27 games, thesebeloved birds stirred “Charm City” into a frenzy.To capitalize on this ardor, a series of previouslyunidentified cards were released to the public.For years the few owners of these uncataloguedprizes had little to build on when determining anorigin. Unconvering this mystery, a reliableMaryland-based collector has supplied proofthat these collectibles were inserted into loafs ofthe Tip Top Bread brand. Having recently sur-faced in Baltimore, Maryland, the offered accu-mulation of thirteen 1921 Baltimore Orioles (TipTop Bread) cards are the only such graded andthe largest grouping to be offered for publicsale. Included are SGC 40: (7 cards) withAitcheson, R. Clarke, Egan, Frank, Kneisch,Lyston, Murphy; SGC 30: (4 cards) with D.Davis, Dunn, Holden, Matthews; SGC 20:Bishop and SGC Authentic: Jacobson. Beingthat so few specimens have ever surfaced, it isunknown if this is a complete team set sansGrove (offered elsewhere in our current auc-tion). Who says great finds still do not occurwithin the hobby? With only a handful of exam-ples scattered through the Baltimore region, thisgallery is essential for the type card specialist.Opening Bid $900.00


724. 1921 Baltimore Orioles (Tip Top Bread) Lefty Grove SGC20—UncataloguedFresh from the small Western Maryland community of Lonaconing, Robert Moses LeftyGrove rose to prominence by winning 25 contests for the 1921 Baltimore Orioles. The twen-ty-one year old southpaw anchored a pitching staff for a squad that went 119-47 and is oftenconsidered the greatest minor league team of all-time. Presented is a remarkable find fromthat campaign, the only graded 1921 Baltimore Orioles Lefty Grove rookie card.. A reliableMaryland-based collector has supplied proof that this relic, graded 20 Fair 1.5 by SGC, origi-nated from the Tip Top Bread brand and was inserted into loafs of product in the Baltimorearea. The obscure hurler whose surname is identified as Groves(s) peers into his Hall ofFame future on this sepia image. The uncatalogued blank-back specimen was printed on thinpaper stock and displays a combination of expected creasing and peripheral wear commensu-rate with its assessment. With only a handful of ungraded samples nestled in permanent col-lections, this regional treasure is vital for the Hall of Fame type collector.Opening Bid $400.00
