Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>My doubts 1st started when I heard about where many of the Doyle's, that Fritsch bought up in the 1980's, ended<br /> up. And more recently, when a fake (graded) Joe Doyle error card showed up, it understandbly made me skeptical.<br /><br />But, about 1 1/2 years ago when I 1st came up with my "PIEDMONT first" theory, I realized just like the Magie error,<br />the Joe Doyle error card fit perfectly into my Piedmont theory.<br /><br />And, then I started noticing the "Printer's Mark" on some regular Joe Doyle cards....and, I did a study on it.<br />Assuming this Mark reflects the prior presence of the "Nat'l" lettering (as I certainly do), then I am fully convinced.<br /><br />I just wish a few more of these Joe Doyle error cards would show up.<br /><br />TED Z

Posted By: <b>MVSNYC</b><p>Ted, you said- "I just wish a few more of these Joe Doyle error cards would show up."<br /><br />why? we've now seen enough to know it is a legitimate "variation/printing error"...<br /><br />a limited number of them known keeps the value higher...<br /><br />or do you want the market to be saturated with them, thus not having much of a premium?

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Don't misunderstand my last statement in the above response.<br /><br />I do not need more of these Joe Doyle error cards to convince me....I am convinced.<br /><br />However, just for the thrill of finding more of them, is why I wish at least a dozen (or more) would be discovered.<br /><br />DITTO.....for the Ty Cobb/Ty Cobb card.<br /><br />TED Z

Posted By: <b>MVSNYC</b><p>joe- you obviously haven't read too many of my posts. i am true collector, who has been obsessed with T206 rare variations for the last 15+ years...the majority of my posts focus on collecting such rarities, and that is also where my main area of knowledge is...from time to time, i might reference value or "supply & demand", but that is usually mentioned to give a point of reference for scarcity...ask anyone who knows me on this board, and they will tell you that i am a very passionate T206 collector.<br /><br />ted- i totally get your point, and as i have mentioned previously, i give you huge kudos for unearthing this very subtle, yet very cool variation!
