May 26-27, 2010 Ww Wh Ugginsandsc Ot Tc Om • 1.866.462.2273 369. 1949 S 369. 1949 Silber’s Bakery Colts Y.A. Tittle SGC 40 Rookie (Only Known Graded) While most football historians associate Yelberton Abraham Y.A. Tittle with either the San Francisco 49ers or New York Giants, the Hall of Fame quarterback honed his craft with the 1948-1949 Baltimore Colts of the All-America Football Conference. The affable Louisiana State alum followed his Baltimore tenure with ten All-Pro/Pro-Bowl selections and a pair of NFL Most Valuable Players awards. Depicting the gunslinger at the dawn of his prolific career, the offered 1949 Silber’s Bakery Y.A. Tittle rookie card is the first such to have been offered for public sale and the only professionally graded example. Graded 40 VG 3 by SGC, Tittle was one of seventeen known players issued by the Southwest Baltimore bakery and distributed during the season as part of a promotional campaign at the eight Silber’s “Charm City” locations. According to a reliable Maryland-based hob- byist, only three Tittle examples are known, the offered sample and another, which is permanently nestled in a private collection. According to a book by Patterson entitled Football In Baltimore: History and Memorabilia (2000, Johns Hopkins University Press), a previous owner relates the following story, “I ran into Y.A. Tittle, one of my all-time heroes, several years ago, and showed him my Silber’s card of him. Y.A looked at it in amazement, saying he had no recollection whatsoever of the card. He thought, and all the price guides echo it, that his 1950 Bowman card was his rookie card. In reality it was his 1949 Silber’s card.” Being that a total of seven copies of five different players have been judged by SGC (none graded by PSA), it is not surprising that many advanced hobbyists were previously unaware of the existence of this issue. Undoubtedly the “crown jewel” of the issue, this pioneering football rookie card is “a must” for the serious vintage gridiron specialist.

  • Hrizonhhighways February • 1951
    HRIZONHHIGHWAYS FEBRUARY • 1951 . THIRTY-FIVE CENTS , l /jJI I\fj Spring has a good press. The poets make much ado about birds, bees, flowers and the sprightliness of the season. They neglect such mundane subjects as spring house cleaning and overlook the melancholy fact that armies with evil intentions march when the snow melts. We hope our only concern is with flowers, bees and birds and things like that. As for spring house cleaning, just open the doors and let the house air out. Why joust with vacuum cleaners and mops when spring beckons? Spring does a good job of beckoning in the desert land. It is our pleasure to show you some panoramas of the desert and desert plateau country when nature's fashion calls for spring dress. We wish we could promise the most colorful spring ever but the effiorescence of spring depends on the rainfall. We have had a darned dry "dry spell" hereabouts, broken only by a good rain in late January. If the rains keep on, then we can predict a real pretty March, April and May, but who the heck is going to be silly enough to try to tell whether it'll rain. Anyway, we'll promise you grand weather. An Arizona spring can't be beat. The weather had better be perfect! Sometime this month a group of wonderfully agile and extremely well paid young men who answer to the roll call of the Cleveland Indians, and another group of even more agile and even better paid young men who form the New York Yankees baseball team arrive in Tucson and Phoenix for spring training, the latter to get ready to defend the World's Championship, the former to try to bring it to Cleveland.
