The following info provides the status of 10 of these ballplayers during the time period of April 1909 >> 1910 season which may well explain why these guys
were "short-circuited" with respect to the usual full complement of 350-type backs (as are typical of most of the other T206's in the 150/350 series group).
Note
The timeline of the transitional status of these 10 player's is approximately concurrent with American Lithographic's start-up of printing their 350 cards.
Of which the PIEDMONT brand was printed first.
Bill Dahlen...............Oct 27, 1909....signed by Brooklyn
Bob Ewing...............Jan 10, 1910....traded tp the Phillies
Bob Ganley..............May 18, 1909....traded to Philadelphia A's
Tom Jones...............Aug 20, 1909....traded to Detroit
Ed Karger................June 9, 1909.....sold to St. Paul Saints (American Association)
.............................July 26, 1909....traded to Boston (AL)
Vive Lindaman..........July 7, 1909....Major League career ends
Carl Lundgren...........Apr 23, 1909....Major League career ends
Germany Schaefer.....Aug 13, 1909....traded to Washington
Al Shaw..................1910....played with Wichita Jobbers (Western League)
Tubby Spencer.........1910....played with St. Paul Saints (American Association)
Needless to say....the PIEDMONT 350 cards and the EPDG cards of these 12 - T206's are very rare and will usually sell for a premium.
Unless, of course, you are lucky to find any of them selling for a common price. I don't think that will occur with the Lundgren card
Questions are welcomed, and appreciated.
