1921/1922 Haffner’s Big-Tayto-Loaf Bread Overview

Haffner’s Big-Tayto-Loaf Bread cards are one of the many sets that utilized the design/checklist from the popular W575-1 strip card set and/or E121 American Caramel set. The cards are feature a black and white player image along with his name, position, and team at the bottom. These cards are recognized as both a 1921 issue or a 1922 issue by different collectors.

Backs of the cards is what distinguishes these from other W575-1 and E121 card issues.

The back of these cards include an understatement advertisement for the product. The Haffner’s Big-Tayto-Loaf Bread name is printed as well as a short baseball-themed slogan, “A Sure Hit – for the Home Plate.”

The set name is often shortened by collectors to ‘Haffner’s Bread.’

1921/1922 Haffner’s Big-Tayto-Loaf Bread Checklist

Not many Haffner’s Big-Tayto-Loaf Bread cards have been found to date. In addition, a complete W575-1 checklist has never been fully confirmed. That checklist, however, lines up closely with the E121 American Caramel checklist. For that reason, I have listed that checklist below and these would seem to be potential cards that could have a Haffner’s Big-Tayto-Loaf Bread back.
