Major
Find of Rare Al Demaree Die Cuts (R304) in
Plus
an interview with Marshall S. Leaf concerning the history of Leaf Gum and
the R304s
By
George Vrechek
In 2008 a
hard-working
Ken has never been
much of a collector and certainly had never heard of the Al Demaree Die-Cuts.
However Ken’s dad collected cards as a kid in the 1930s. Ken’s dad was born
in 1921 and grew up in
Ken counted 109 cards in the box which included 87 singles and 22 duplicates. Of the singles, 30 of the cards are not listed in the current SCD Standard Catalog of Baseball Cards. Three of Ken’s cards have numbers that were previously unknown although the players were listed (missing the tabs). The unlisted cards found in the box include Greenberg, Sewell, Herman, Goslin, Averell, Cronin, Foxx, two different cards each of West and Hafey, and three umpires. In addition to these previously unlisted cards, the find includes HOFers Al Simmons, Luke Appling, Charlie Gehringer, Dizzy Dean, Pie Traynor, Paul Waner, and umpire Bill Klem. Babe and Lou didn’t make it to the box.
Ken picked out three cards and had them graded by PSA. The previously unknown Goose Goslin #30 came back a PSA 5 (excellent), the previously unknown #159 Babe Herman graded PSA 4 (VG-Ex), and #145 Traynor graded PSA 2 (good). Ken’s feeling is that the bulk of the cards are at least as good as the Goslin or Herman cards. The condition of the cards was certainly better than I would expect for an issue which, we will learn, was designed to be marched around in a baseball board game.

My next article mentioning the R304s was about collecting sets from the 1930s. My research showed that while the completed listings on ebay included 3,676 of the 1933 Goudeys, there were only two listings for the R304s in the same period, although a handful more have popped up on pricier auctions outside ebay. I included the Al Demarees in the category of impossible sets to collect. A recent on-line poll also included the Al Demarees in the impossible category. I checked with a few very experienced vintage dealers who had never bought or sold an R304.
What do we know
about who issued these cards and why they are so scarce? There are many candy
companies in
I visited 1732 W. Hubbard in the hope of finding some Al Demaree Die-Cuts still laying around in the trash (not really). The 3-story manufacturing building appeared to have been built before 1920. The building now houses architects, web designers, and photographers, but no one making gum or baseball cards. I talked to a few tenants and the current young owner of the building and soon found that I knew more about the building’s history than they did. I later learned that not only was gum and candy made there but probably baseball cards as well.
1732
W. Hubbard,
Now I was looking
for “Leaf” and not “Dietz” to get more information on this issue. Back in
the library I found that by 1947 both
An hour later I
found the 86 year-old Marshall S. Leaf still very much alive and well and
living a few blocks from me in
Over the next hour of our conversation, I learned about Sol and Marshall Leaf and Leaf Gum. Marshall Leaf said that his father “would use every name for his business other than ‘Leaf.’ The principal entity was called Overland Candy and the name Dietz came from one of the foremen, Joe Dietz, who had no ownership at all in the business. The companies were all in the same building with the same owner – Sol Leaf.” Other names used were Chicago Biscuit Company and Leaf Machinery. Only the names were different. I recall that until the 1960s it was advantageous for businesses to operate under different corporate entities that would be entitled to lower tax rates on the first portion of their earned income. (SCD’s CPA/collector readership will enjoy rereading Section 1561 of the IRS Code.)
Sol Leaf had an
eye as to what sold and how to make a profit, according to
Marshall Leaf was
more of a sports fan than his father and closer in age to the company’s typical
consumer. According to
Glasser
Article
Ken found a 1998 article in VCBC by Gerald Glasser which shed further light on the cards, wrappers and game board. A light bulb went off when I saw the game board, read the article, and added in the cards from Ken’s find. My thought is that this issue is far from being like the skip-numbered 1948 and 1949 Leafs remembered by Marshall Leaf. This issue was not cutoff in midstream by possible litigation. Nine position players are in the set for each team (nobody needed a relief pitcher in those days). The best hitter on each team was also shown in a batting pose to be in the batter’s box when playing the game. Sixteen teams had 10 cards each covering 9 different players. You needed four umpires to officiate a game, four from each league, 168 cards in total.
The
Still Missing Players
Everything about this issue started to make sense. Somewhere out there are another 18 cards that include Ruth, Dickey, Manush, Terry, two more umpires and 12 others. My hunch is based on figuring out what positions are missing from each team and who played the missing positions in 1933 and 1934 per the Baseball Almanac. I think there are 168 cards in the set (if one could ever be assembled). The set is numbered 1 to 168 but at least 3 numbers are missing and 3 other numbers are double-printed with 2 different players. I also think Al Demaree himself came up with the numbering and lineups, although the Leaf boys encouraged the missing number idea that Goudey had used the year before. The players chosen seem to be very accurate as to who would likely be in each team’s starting lineup and who was the best hitter. One stretch was including rookie Hawaiian Prince Oana as a Phillie outfielder. Oana lasted the first month of the 1934 season before returning to the minors for 9 more years. His card though has remained on many wantlists. The number 4 card in the set is Ruth in a batting pose, discovered a few years ago. There has to be another Ruth with a glove to play right field and the Yankees had to have a catcher. Bill Dickey and Babe Ruth are in another oversized shoe box someplace in the world, probably near a cornfield like in Field of Dreams! Their card numbers will be 2 and 8. (See the accompanying chart showing previously known R304s, new R304s from this find, and the author’s ideas of the identity of still missing cards.)
Back in the days
when ballplayers needed off-season jobs, Al Demaree seemed to be pretty well
equipped. He grew up in
Demaree bumped
around minor league and semi-pro ball for a number of years after finishing
his major league career in 1919. In 1922 he was suspended by Commissioner
Landis (never a good sign) as the then manager of
Al Demaree and his artwork were featured on the front page of the Chicago Tribune Sports Section September 27, 1914
By the late 1940s
the Leaf name was used and they started issuing baseball cards again as well
as football cards (sets that now list at about $100K in near mint). Marshall
didn’t remember that they did anything to gain the rights to the players’
images then either. They eventually let Bowman and Topps have the card market.
The Leaf and Topps people knew each other and were respectful competitors.
The 1960 American Card Catalog stated
the “post World War II period began with three major card publishers: Leaf
Gum of Chicago, Bowman of Philadelphia, and Topps of Brooklyn. Leaf discontinued
card issues in 1950 after a legal dispute with Bowman over baseball player
photo rights.” Leaf did come back again with another one-year wonder: the
1960 Leaf issue, although “Leaf” is not mentioned on the cards. They are attributed
to “Sports Novelties, Inc.,
Leaf Brands continued to grow into a very significant company and was sold in 1983. Leaf eventually became part of Hershey Foods. By 1996 the separate identity of the Leaf operations disappeared entirely into Hershey’s. However the trading card name “Leaf” lived on with Donruss/Pinnacle again starting in 1985 and into the 21st Century.
Ken has this incredible find of R304 Al Demaree cards and the Goudey premiums put away in a safe deposit box for now. He has researched the cards and the prices realized for other R304s. As previously described, he had three of the cards graded and they came back PSA 5, PSA4, and PSA2. It would be hard to imagine that there is anyone else in the world with 109 R304s. He has made no commitment to sell the cards yet and will weigh his options and consider any offers. His father would be happy to know that Ken will be able to “do something” with the cards. Our thanks to Ken for sharing this information with the hobby and filling in most of the blanks as to this interesting set. Ken can be reached at: camino34@ymail.com.
