1934,1935,1936 Diamond MatchbooksDuring much of the Great Depression, matchbook collecting swept the country ! Sports matchbooks started appearing in the 1930s, most issued by Diamond Match Company of New York. Over the next few years, several series were issued with similar designs; b/w photo of the player on front with short write-up and stats on back. The player's name and team was also printed on the 'saddle'.
Please consider the following info as approximate. 1935's issue was tiny with only 24 total covers (8 red,8 blue,8 green). A third series was later released with 200 or more different covers (players/colors). 1930's matchbook covers appear to be huge bargains for collectors as their current values are fractions of the value of Goudey and other baseball cards from the same era.

Apparently some kids placed rub-offs of certain players on their bats to help them hit like the player. I wish I would have known ... I could have used the help.

In 1961 Topps issued a similar item called "Magic Rub-Offs".
There were 36 different in that set. Topps went way further with their
1966 issue of (120) rub-offs (100 players & 20 pennants).
The rub-offs were inserts, one per 1966 Topps wax pack.
The 2-1/6 inch by 3 inch rub-offs were printed in rolls
of 20 different.
