It was actually not difficult to do as the 2 sites I used gave me everything I needed to insert the missing players (other than the wrongful team names - the HOF site also has Guerrero listed in the "V" as they missed the comma between the names when entering him for this year).
These are the type of things we as members can do instead of aasking Admin to do it so that he (they) can invest their time to things we ask for (such as trading between one's collections).
I also learned something about the Primary Team and the "pictured" team thanks to this forum. Nolan Ryan is another exception to this - his primary team is listed as California Angels yet, as I am sure he asked for, his bust is of the Texas Rangers cap.

Since we're talking about HOF Plaque cards, there are at least four other sets of Hall of Fame postcards available.
(1939-1943) Sepia Plaque HOF Postcards (2 versions)
(1944-1952) Albertype Black & White HOF Plaque Postcards (2 versions)
(1953-1963) Artvue Black& White HOF Plaque Postcards (2 versions)
(1979) Dexter Press colored HOF Plaque Postcards 54 entries
More information about the sets can be found here.
Is there a need to catalog these issues on this site? These sets are much more rare than the extremely popular and common Yellow Plaque HOF postcards we have cataloged here. What is the goal of the sets entered here? To catalog everything ever produced or some subset thereof that is of the most use to the collectors here? Without a doubt the Yellow Plaques are the most useful to the greatest population.

My Autograph Collection Website Emphasis is on the 1969 Cubs. This is still a work in progress as is my collection here at TCDB. Value what you collect, don't collect for value. |

Wow, little did I know what efforts I would put into gear by starting this thread. Great work, everyone. I'm sorry I didn't contribute more. I'll scan in the ones that I have that are missing images! This crowd-sourcing is great, especially with members of the crowd who are so efficient and hard-working. Again, well done.

I didn't even use another website as I worked on the bottom of the list. I have the 2005 HOF Yearbook and used that to verify induction years and add notes for EXEC and MGR to all inducted to that point. I was surprised by how many of the old listings had the induction years WAY off, like by a decade before or after actual induction.
Great work to everyone who contributed. The CL looks a ton better in a very short time.

Ok. I couldn’t help but add the 14 of these I have into my collection. And it just occurred to me that adding them had the added bonus of putting the Cubs into sole possession of second place on my most cards from a team stat, shaking those pesky Red Sox.
I think my Cubs were in fourth when I first noticed that stat on the site. That bothered me. Remedied!
Catching the Yankees will be tough, though.

I guess you have a lot more "keeps" than I do. My Cardinals are #1 in my Collection Stats by team by almost 4100 over the Padres (at 199). The Padres would mostly just be my Ozzie Smith and Tony Gwynn cards (plus any cards in complete sets). The Yankees aren't even in the Top-10, but the Cubs are #6 (Sandberg, Lou Brock and set cards).
Even in my FS/T list, NYY isn't in the Top-10! The A's are #1 there and the Cubs are #8. For traders, the Yankees are 23rd with the Cardinals right behind them in 24th.

Ok it might be me but I think the correct order should be year of introduction. Not Alphabet.

No numbers, so therefore, NNO, alpha by last name - per the site's rules.

Hi there,
I have recently purchased a collection of the yellow plaque postcards. There are over 115 different cards and over 3000 in total. Many of them have 3 to 5 variations of each card. Made in Canada, different photos on front. IN the stamp area (upper right hand corner) there are blank spaces in them , some same USA only , some have numbers only and some have Made in Canada with numbers. Any help in trying to assemble these variations would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bart
