1900 T203 Baseball Comics
 
As a type collector I always like the backs of our cards too, especially with respect to advertising. As such I look for T203 Winners Cut Plug Baseball Comic cards. They are quite scarce relative to the Mayo's cards.
When a small group showed up recently I was glad to be able to acquire them. Anyone else have any T203s?

Mayos
 
Wow never knew those existed. I’ve got a small group of T203s at home from 40 years ago..... I will check the backs later today but I’m pretty sure they are all Mayos.

No dice
 
Just checked... 25 cards in various condition including 17 different....all with the Mayo backs. Nuts.

Hi Leon,

Nice T203s !

I only have one or two examples in my collection and they all have the more common Mayo back.

Just one in my collection, and with the regular ol' Mayo back. I like this one because it pictures baseball equipment (bat) and possibly baseball uniform/cap, unlike all the others in the set that have baseball sayings but picture non-baseball artwork.

These are very cool looking. I think I am going to start looking into these.

Thanks all for sharing

Sold my full set years ago. Didn't even know there were different backs.

Kewl set.
As evidenced in this thread the Winners Cut Plug are really scarce. In my estimation they are almost like Zeenuts with tabs compared to ones without tabs. My swag guess, from looking for them for years, is that around 1-2% are Winners Cut Plug with the rest being Mayos.
