$50 REWARD for finding any BROAD LEAF 460 "No-Print" cards

[White Borders]

Hey Ted,

What are your thoughts on the two bifurcated cards, Kleinow (Boston) and Smith (Chi & Bos), with respect to the mutual exclusivity of BL460/Red Hindu vs AB460/Uzit? Do you think they behave as 350/460 Series subjects?

If so, since Kleinow (Boston) has been confirmed with a BL460 back, then it should also be found with a Red Hindu, but not with AB460 or Uzit backs.

For Smith (Chi & Bos), I think, but I'm not certain, that it has been confirmed with an AB460 back. So, it should then also be found with an Uzit back, but not with a BL460 or Red Hindu.

Many times I've read Scot Reader's explanation of the bifurcation of Kleinow (NY Catching) / Kleinow (Boston) and Smith (Chi White Cap) / Smith (Chi & Bos) in "Inside T206". It is a fascinating - but somewhat difficult - concept to completely grasp!

Thanks and Best Regards,
Craig


Note - The following is the pertinent portion from Scot Reader's "Inside T206: Centennial Edition" for anyone wanting to brush up on the bifurcations of Kleinow and Smith.

The T206 subject bifurcation theory introduced in the 150/350 group discussion has relevance to the 350/460 RP group as well. In the latter subject group, the players of interest are Red Kleinow and Frank Smith. These players have subjects, Kleinow (N.Y. Catching) and Smith (Chicago White Cap), that were intended to have been fully printed with the 350/460 RP group, but experienced shortened print runs due to trades that sent these players to new teams.

As a result of the trades, the original subjects that identified the players with their former teams were replaced midway through the 350/460 RP print run with subjects that identified the players with their new teams. The result is that all four of these bifurcated subjects were short-printed relative to garden variety 350/460 RP subjects.

Thus, Kleinow (N.Y. Catching) was an intended 350/460 RP subject that was printed with 350 series backs but removed before the 460 portion of the print run started in favor of Kleinow (Boston), which underwent print with the 460 series backs.

Similarly, Smith (Chicago White Cap) was a planned 350/460 RP subject that was printed with 350 series backs before yielding to Smith (Chicago and Boston), which experienced the 460 portion of the print run.

The Kleinow and Smith bifurcations have several consequences. First, although Kleinow (N.Y. Catching) and Smith (Chicago White Cap) are technically 350-only subjects (since they do not appear with any 460 series back), as bifurcated 350/460 RP subjects they do not exist with any 350 series back that is exclusive to the 350-only group, namely, American Beauty 350 with Frame, Broad Leaf 350, Carolina Brights or Cycle 350.

Second, although Kleinow (Boston) and Smith (Chicago and Boston) are technically 460-only subjects (since they do not appear with any 350 series back), as bifurcated 350/460 RP subjects they do not exist with any 460 series back that was introduced with the 460-only subject group, namely, Sovereign 460 or Sweet Caporal 460 Factory 30.
