Turkey Red Collage

 

 

The Turkey Red reference section has been neglected for several years now. I am working on updating the Tacoma Giants pages at this time. My hope is to update the Turkey Reds pages by the first of the year. If anyone would like to contribute to this project please send me a email Turkey Red Help

Thank you for visiting the T3 Turkey Reds area. In my opinion Turkey Reds are some of the most desirable Tobacco cards to collect. They are a beautiful set of cards. T3's were issued as a premium to collectors who were invited to send in 10 coupons from Turkey Red Cigarettes or 25 coupons for either Old Mill or Fez Cigarettes in exchange for one Turkey Red Cabinet Card. On the reverse of each card is a checklist for the set. Some cards featured advertising on the back. Please choose one of the links below to visit the pages dedicated to the Turkey Reds.

Complete Checklist of Turkey Reds

Vintage Cardboard is working on a ambitious project and your help is needed!
Do you collect T3 Turkey Reds? If so your help would be very valuable. Price guides for this issue do no show the true value of these cards. Vintage Cardboard is starting to record the sales price for these issues. If you purchase a T3 would you please consider emailing Vintage Cardboard with the details of your purchase? Looking for the card you purchased, condition, price, and where you purchased it. No personal information is requested. I hope to compile a accurate price list for other collectors to use when purchasing cards for their collections. I started this price list prior to the new website and I have yet to really get it back and updated. Any and all help would be appreciated. Please email Turkey Red purchase information

Recently sold T3 Turkey Reds from various sources.

Vintage Cardboard is proud to provide the online T3 Turkey Reds price list. Here you will be able to see what T3's cards are actually selling for on the open market. The annually published price guides are great to give you an idea of a cards value. However, nothing is better than actual prices to help one determine the value of their collection. This list is not possible without the assistance of collectors. Please if you have purchased any T3 cards please consider letting Vintage Cardboard know so we can add the cards to our list. Images of cards are especially welcome. As we have all discovered grading is an inexact science at best. Having photo documentation will help all of us know what condition the card is actually in. Most T3's are sold on eBay and Yahoo! auctions. However, many are sold through other auction services. Vintage Cardboard tries to obtain prices for cards sold at private auction but we need your help. Please consider letting Vintage Cardboard know when you are able to purchase a T3 through private sale. All information will be kept confidential. Your assistance will help make this guide useful for many more collectors.
