D381 Checklist

This is the most complete and correct D381 checklist; others found across the internet are just copies of lists from the 70’s and earlier that omit most variations as well as the Johnson card, and make no mention of Ferguson-only cards. I’ve combined the 100 known Fleischmann cards with the 4 cards issued only by Ferguson and added all known variations for Fleischmann cards, with descriptions. As of 2025, I haven’t found a new variation now in more than 5 years, so this list may include all of them.

One helpful thing about the old checklists, e.g., in The Sports Collectors Bible, is that someone (Larry Fritsch, perhaps?) provided information that certain cards exist that we have not been able to verify ourselves. Those checklists note variations for Becker, Clarke, Collins, and Thomas, all of which have been verified and are included below. They also claim that there are error cards for Keating, Kocher, Konetchy, and Knetzer where the player photos are reversed, but these are almost certainly differences between Fleischmann and Ferguson cards of those players. We know that the Konetchy and Knetzer photos are wrong on Fleischmann cards but are correct with Ferguson cards. I haven’t seen the Keating and Kocher errors, but I’d guess it’s the reverse situation, i.e., the Fleischmann cards are correct and the Ferguson cards are wrong. Lastly, the old checklists note that a Jennings card exists. I have not been able to find a collector who has one or has an image. That is my D381 holy grail.

I’ve also made the checklist publicly available as a Google spreadsheet. The bottom of this page has lists for D381’s by team and the D381’s in the Burdick Collection at The Met. Sort any column by clicking on the text in the column header.

Counts by Team

This is the count of cards by team. For the sake of completeness, I’ve included teams that have zero players

Burdick Collection

This is a checklist of all D381’s in the Burdick Collection at the Met. All cards have their coupons attached.
