The 1930s: [#13] JACK ROXY CROUCH, 1930-1933 St. Louis Browns

Description: For the Baseball Hobbyist The 1930's [#13] - Jack Albert "Roxy" CROUCH ~ 1935-1936 St. Louis Browns ~ This is player's FIRST CARD from scarce 1972 TCMA set of 504+ cards It seems like only yesterday when little series of 24 cards would arrive in the mail from a company back east with a very long, almost odd sounding name: The Card Memorabilia Associates, Limited. TCMA for short. But, really, it has been more than 35 years and those then easily obtainable cards picturing players of The Thirties are now tough to find. Not rare - just tough; very tough. Each one features a neat little borderless black and white photograph (except for a scant few in blue) with reverse side offering only set title (The 1930's), player name, team affiliation (and year(s)), card number (for most but not all cards) and TCMA copyright. All in a format measuring a shy 2" by 3"*. It should be noted that centering, particularly when viewed from the back, was frequently not true. We believe the more than 500 cards comprising the 1972 TCMA "The 1930s" set represent the largest set devoted to the decade ever issued. Only Megacards' 1991 through 1995 set of more than 1,400 cards comes close and that "set" was issued over a five-year period. Collector Warning! Warning: Do not try to complete a full set of 504+ cards unless you have great patience and much good fortune. TCMA's The 1930's set, as we indicated, may well be the most comprehensive set of cards picturing players of that decade. Do consider picking up a card or two of a favorite ballplayer, cards depicting players from a favorite team or just a sample for your Type card collection. Many of our TCMA The 1930's cards are the only copy in stock; indeed, frequently the only copy available on eBay. High resolution scans of this card are provided with a color background so corner and edge detail may be evaluated. *A few dozen cards within the 1972 TCMA The 1930s set were issued in slightly larger 2-1/2" by 3-1/2" size.
