These are from the Benanti collection. Does anyone else have any cards from this collection? I picked up a few over the last 10 years. Beckett auctioned them off years ago and shared information about where these cards originated.
Does anyone have other Kellogg's Proof cards? Do you know the history behind the cards?
Don't know anything about these... nor have I ever owned one. I love everything related to 1970 Kellogg's though.
ReplyDeleteIf the blank backs are these proofs, I have one raw. Interesting to see these graded.
ReplyDeleteI don't know that being black-backed means that they are also proofs. These all came from an employee of Xograph so someone was able to figure out that they were proofs. I've even found a few that differ slightly from the card actually produced. I didn't even check these two yet to see if they differ from the final product.
ReplyDeleteThat is really interesting. I have a blank backed Bill Nelson and always wondered, guess I still have to haha. I have two regular issue PSA 9 Warfields here in front of me and yours looks the same to me. I hope someone can shed more light on them.
DeleteI haven't checked mine against the regular cards so thanks for checking for me. I have one proof where the signature location changed and another where they changed the clouds. Who decided that the clouds needed to change and why? Did they spend time thinking about that?
