The 1926-29 Exhibits "Postcard Back" issue is speculated to have been issued in the Philadelphia area.  Though the cards typically feature postcard backs, they are occasionally found blank, and some with the notice "Not for use in Exhibit Machines."  Further, some contain a country of origin (USA) added to the backs.  The cards can be found printed in a variety of color tints as well.  The result is a wide variety of possible variations with differing degrees of scarcity, very appealing to advanced hobbyists.

High-grade example of the card some consider to be the rookie card of Hall of Famer Paul Waner, a gorgeous, pink tint example graded NM 7 by SGC.  The card boasts a clean surface and outstanding image quality with sharp corners and edges.  A slight centering issue on the reverse, along with light soiling, accounts for the grade.  An outstanding example of an early card of the popular Hall of Famer.
