I just got an interesting phone call and email from Rob Lifson. Rob has in his upcoming auction 16 of the 18 known Tango Eggs players, which is in fact the #1 set on the PSA registry. It also comes with letters from the family who owned the original cards. Apparently, over time there have been errors made regarding which cards actually exist, and Rob feels there are related errors in the checklist, so much so that he is offering a reward of $100,000 to anybody who can come up with the following: examples of Wagner and Tinker, and the other two known examples of Morgan and Felsch. Now, before anyone goes to collect the reward, I'm not sure if you have to produce all the examples or just one. But he is stating that none of these actually exist. He emailed the catalog description and it is quite compelling.

Edited to add the two that are missing from his group are Cobb and Schaefer.
