1888 H804-3 Buffords Sons Trade Card “A Short Stop.”
Lot 16. 1888 H804-3 Buffords Sons Trade Card “A Short Stop.” This “801” series card features superb color lithography on the front and a premium promotion on the back that began Sept. 12, 1888 and ran for 30 days. Technically g-vg with a light vertical crease and a stain, the card displays very nicely, and better than the grade. It’s a 19th century classic especially desirable because of the advertising for the G.A.T. Co. on the back, for the “Great American Tea Co.” Established in 1870, it later became the Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co., or A&P. This card and Lot 15 constitute one-half of the scarce four-card set.
Minimum Bid $50.
