1928 W513 – #61 Eddie Roush, New York Giants – MLB Hall of Fame – PSA A On the Player – Eddie J. Roush (1893-1988) was an MLB center fielder who played from 1913 to 1931, with stints on the Chicago White Sox (1913), New York Giants (1916; 1927-1929), and Cincinnati Reds (1916-1926; 1931). He also competed in the Federal League with the Indianapolis Hoosiers/Newark Peppers (1914-1915). Roush was a World Series champion in 1919 and a two-time National League batting champion (1917, 1919). Over his career, he posted an impressive .323/.369/.446 slash line. In 1962, he was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. During the Deadball Era, Roush was regarded as the premier defensive outfielder in the National League, known for his speed and remarkable ability to track balls by turning his back and running directly to where they would land. One of baseball’s most fiery competitors, his tenacity was similar to that of Ty Cobb and, later, Pete Rose. While his name may not be widely recognized today, Roush was a celebrated figure during his playing days and was one of 22 players featured in Lawrence Ritter’s The Glory of Their Times, a seminal work in baseball oral history. On the W513 Famous People Strip Set – One hundred years ago, retailers such as grocery or candy stores offered cards of famous people and athletes, either for sale in strips or as giveaways to loyal customers. These “strip” cards were typically provided in long strips or sheets, allowing merchants to cut or tear off a certain number for customers. Consequently, rough or uneven edges and inconsistent card sizes were common. Jefferson Burdick, in his classic baseball card guide, “The American Card Catalog,” classified these sets as W cards. The poor-quality paper used in producing strip cards, combined with the ripping or cutting process, means that card grades above « Authentic » are uncommon. The precursor to Burdick’s 1928 W513 Famous People Strip Set is his designated 1925-27 W512 Baseball-Athletes-Boxers-Movie Drawings set. The W512 set comprises 50 color strip cards, including ten baseball players, with each card measuring around 1-3/8” by 2-1/4”. Burdick believed that the 1928 W513 Famous People Strip Set likely continued the themes of the W512 set.Regarding baseball, the W513 set has a larger presence than the W512 set, featuring 26 baseball players compared to 10 in the latter (card numbers 61-86). In terms of rarity, W513 strip cards are generally considered tougher to acquire than W512 cards, with the exception of Ty Cobb and Babe Ruth from the W512 set. This is due to the fact that the W512 set was produced over three years (1925-27), while the W513 was available for only one year, 1928. Due to the absence of any manufacturer’s name on the cards, these are considered an anonymous production. The W513 set features colored images of the player surrounded by a black line, with the player’s name, position, and team identified at the card bottom. (The player’s position was not included in the W512 set.) Additionally, the card number is printed in large type in the lower left corner. Card backs are usually blank, and the card size is around 1-7/16” by 2-1/4”.
