Hi Sonny

Great AB cards, and Hofman and Irv Young are 350-only Series cards.

It sure looks like they missed the "chopping block" back in American Litho.

Hi Colton

This kind of stuff may not interest some of you, but it does appeal to my "Engineering mentality" :) The standard size dimensions of a T206 are.... 1 1/2" x 2 5/8".

It appears that American Lithographic cut the AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 cards consistently narrower than the AB 350 (frame) or AB 350 (no frame) cards. Since, I have
never seen a "FAT" AB 460 card.


350-only Series subject

-----------------^---- 1 7/16" -------^------------------------^------------------- 1 3/8" --------------------^



Incidentally, the Davy Jones card depicted above in the prior post is a 350-only Series subject (dimensions are 1 15/32" x 2 5/8")


Furthermore, here are a couple "skinny" AB 460's. If anyone on this forum can chime in with a "fat" AB 460 card, I would love to see it.

My Jessie Tannehill measures 1 7/16" wide. Only a 1/16 of an inch shy of the width of a regular T206. Plus, I prefer the framed back to be well centered (as is this one).

Show us some more of your "fat" AMERICAN BEAUTY's. Also, still waiting to see an AB 460 whose width approaches 1 1/2 inches.

Thanks Jeff....nice Egan card.


Here's a group of some of the tougher guys in the AB 460 run. Note how "skinny" they are. I need only one more T206 to complete this 74-card run.

Here is the other wider AB that I have, this one of Street catching. As a bonus, there is a remnant of another card on the back, and I have determined that card to be Griffith batting.

Brian...."Correctomundo"....to quote Fonzie from Happy Days,
It's a remnant from the Griffith (batting) card.

Thanks for posting your Street card.
