Well-worn 1939 edition of the United States Card Collectors Catalog, as produced by hobby pioneer Jefferson Burdick. The first edition of the ACC, containing early card descriptions and pricing (S.F. Hess California League cards for a nickel apiece! Rambles for three cents!), a fascinating window into early hobby history.  POOR condition, its cover and front pages pulling out of the binding.  Still, a seldom-seen publication from the dawn of the hobby, the very first American Card Catalog.

NOTE: It has been brought to our attention that the cover is not original to the piece. Despite having the appearance of the original, with age-related creasing and even erased writing on the cover, the cover is a modern reproduction. PLEASE NOTE THAT THE REST OF THE BOOK IS ORIGINAL AND COMPLETE. Regardless, we are extending the opportunity to our bidders to cancel their bids if they choose. To cancel, please send an email to [email protected] no later than 9am on Thursday, November 21 and we will delete your bid.
