Description

Bridging the gap between major Topps and Fleer Basketball releases, this early accumulation of (90) 1957-1970 J.D. McCarthy postcards is a fine archive of the hometown Detroit Pistons and New York Knicks franchises. These black-and-white postcard, company and blank backs are far scarcer than the baseball releases and generally present in the (EX to EX-MT) range with some better or lesser. Only a handful of postcards have been marked on the reverses. Includes:  

 

Detroit Pistons Hall of Famers: (21 postcards) with Bing, (4) Clifton, DeBusschere, Gallatin, (5) Howell (two different poses), Lanier, (7) McGuire (one postmarked and written), 1965-1966 Team Card (with Hall of Famers);

 

Other Detroit Pistons: (59 postcards) with Butcher, (4) Cable, (2) Dees, Dischinger, Dove, (6) Dukes, (3) Farley, Fox, (5) Holup, (3) Houbregs, (4) Jordon, (4) Lloyd, (4) McMillion, Miles, (4) Moreland (two different poses), Niemann, (3) Noble, Rocha, (4) Shue, Strawder, (4) Thielsen, Tresvant;

 

New York Knicks: (10 postcards) with (3) Felix, (3) Naulls, (4) Sears
