I saw that bunch of cards with double backs. I missed bidding on some and didn't remember the others.

I think they're pretty interesting. Probably from sheets that were a bit defective and used to setup the press for the next batch of stuff. We called the makeready sheets. Some were new paper, some were whatever we had that was the right size. Obviously the sheet got cut up somewhere.

I think the prices are pretty reasonable right now. There isn't a huge following for the scraps or misprints on modern cards yet. I can't tell if there ever will be one. If they stay cheap I'll be able to get some eventually, if they get a following like T206 misprints my collection will pretty much stop where it is since I won't be able to afford them.

If you like them, buy them.
