My T206 Johnny Kling Back Run
 
3 Attachment(s)
Finally completed my T206 Johnny Kling back run (technically it was months ago, but I didn't have a proper scanner).

Better scans are on my site:http://www.collectorfocus.com/collection/schneids

Thanks to all the folks here who have helped me with this project. It took a little over a year. I found the toughest variations were the Old Mill, EPDG, SC 150 F25, and Sov 150.

I know there's a lot of other T206 back run threads, but I'd love to see yours, even if they are a work in progress.

Thats a great looking run congratulations on completing it! I keep hearing in alot of these runs that the Old Mill is amongst the toughest.

Yes! I was waiting for your official post, I absolutely love the run! That Old Mill really shines, too. I am 3/11 for the run myself, with another on the way. As a Klinger, which one took the longest to find? eBay has had really slim pickings as of late :)

I've been working on a Merkle portrait back run for 4 years. I completed it three years ago, except for the Old Mill.

Old Mill and EPDG took the longest to find, but a couple of the Sweet Caps were pretty difficult. I recommend keeping an eye on any SC back Kling that pops up. Good luck collecting!

The Nasty Nati 01-13-2017 12:25 PM

That Dahlen back run is incredible!

What were the hardest to find for your Dahlen run? I'm guessing the Old Mill.

And I can imagine the Pied 350 Lundgren was really tough.

Of the Dahlen's it was the Boston Pied 350 and the Boston EPDG. I think the Brooklyn Old Mill was tough but lucked into it once I got serious about doing Brooklyn too......

Excellent Klings!

Love the Chase Blue Port back run Chris!

I have both of the Chase Blue Port Sovereigns...but I think I'll just have to live vicariously through your collection. You have one of my favorite T206 back runs.

Here, by popular demand, is my Merkle portrait back run. I can't put it in a neat grid, so this is the best I can do. I really like the way that Kling run looks in matching holders, so I'm going to do the same thing after I finish the run with the Old Mill. But for now, here goes:

Wow
 
Simply amazing. Very very impressive Sean!

Sean 01-19-2017 05:55 PM

Thanks guys. I'm still missing the T215 Red Cross, in case anyone knows where I can find one. ;)

Paul S 01-19-2017 08:04 PM

That Pirate back is the dagger in the heart!

Sean 01-19-2017 10:00 PM

Thanks Paul. I never knew it existed until it came up for auction.

Awesome looking Merkle portrait! Starting out I was strongly considering a Merkle back run. I love that portrait. Best of luck with the Old Mill.

And the Throwing run is just jaw dropping.
