Marc S.<<but what about the "other 4" backs that are considered rarer then the BL460? I never see them mentioned much? One old thread had a brief comment on them in that some collectors view them as error cards and not part of the set - or is that simply because they are that rare? >>
I think most of us consider the Ty Cobb back to be a seperate set rather than a distinct back of T-206. I think many consider the Old Mill Souther League Overprint(s) to be error cards rather than distinct, widely-distributed backs.
And I think many do not often regard the Brown backs (whether Old Mill or Lenox) as truly distinct. Even though many here will attest that they are truly different, I think the relatively closeness between black and brown in the grand scheme of things probably deters many from placing a significant premium on the brown backs, despite the scarcity. Brown vs. black is fairly uninteresting, unlike the color differential you see on the Hindus.
