Looking for opinions, T206 blank back/ scrap?
 
I purchased a handful of T206s at a LCS today. Among them was this one. At first, I thought it was just skinned. But after I got home and took it out of the sleeve and compared it to a couple others, it appears to be the same thickness. It feels smooth and even, too. Also, it appears to have a crooked cut on the left side and bottom. Could this possibly be a blank back or scrap? I'm certainly a novice when it comes to this.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...45983d60c5.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...657dee58c2.jpg

Looks like a blank back to me.

The texture isn't as smooth as I'd expect on a blank back.

All T206 blank backs that I am aware of are hand-cut, i.e., printer’s scrap. From the scans, your Reulbach (No Glove) seems to me likely to fit that mold. Nice find. Blanks are somewhat uncommon.

Looks like a legit blank back (scrap).

I think you meant "blank" Mike. I agree with yawls assessments of course. Great pick up....and quite valuable relative to a more common back.

Sweet, thanks everyone. Solid $15 gamble on my part, lol.

Yes, Leon. Blank Back. Typo.

Nice example.
