I love oddball sets that come from odd places, such as a company that makes film. This is a nonlicensed set of legends. It arrived in the mail today.

Butch Henline was a Bloomington Bloomer in 1919 and went on to have a solid big league career. In 1922 he became the first big league catcher to hit 3 home runs in a game. After his playing days ended, Henline went on to have a nice career as an umpire. As an ump, he was the first to eject Jackie Robinson from a game. I’ve included a link to his SABR bio below. This is his 1933 Mrs. Sherlock’s Home Made Bread pin from his time with the Toledo Mud Hens. Little bit of Bloomers. Little bit of oddball!

If you're a fan of vintage oddball/quirky cards that celebrate baseball lore and feature legends like Roberto Clemente, Jackie Robinson, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, and Ty Cobb without the high prices, then this set is for you!
Designed by renowned cartoonist Bob Laughlin, this 40-card set celebrates some of the most extraordinary achievements in baseball history—ranging from record-breaking performances to legendary career milestones.
