This Silver Border Diamond Matchbook Proof was printed by the Diamond Match Co. and is in beautiful condition with only very light corner wear. #42is factory stamped on the back in red.

Four years ago we discovered and purchased a group of 177 Diamond Matchbooks which had never been folded, were never stapled, and where the strikers had never been applied. These Diamond Matchbook Proofs were also in superb condition and generally ranged in condition from a strong Excellent Plus up to Near Mint to Mint. One example (Isidore Izzy Goldstein – the key to the complete baseball set) was professionally graded Near Mint Plus (7.5) by PSA and is currently for sale on eBay. This PSA 7.5 (Near Mint Plus) example of Izzy Goldstein still remains the highest graded Diamond Matchbook in hobby history.

Included in this fabulous group were 71 Baseball from the 1934 Diamond Matchbook Silver Border set, 23 Football from the 1934 Diamond Matchbook Set, 66 Hockey from the 1934-35 Diamond Matchbook Silver Border set, and 17 Hockey from the 1935-36 Diamond Matchbook Tan set. We will be listing many of these gems on eBay in the coming months and this is the perfect time to add one of these extraordinary examples to your baseball, football, or hockey card type set. During 35 years of hobby involvement, this is the only time we have ever seen Diamond Matchbooks in this form. Many of these Diamond Matchbooks are currently unique and all were unknown to the hobby prior to 2008.
