Default T206 REFERENCE....questionable action poses on certain T206's. Show us a ?-able pose

The "questionable" factor of these 2 cards** is not that they're questionable. But it's damn difficult to find them if you are working on
a run of the Elite 11 group. T206 PIEDMONT 350 cards normally aren't considered to be rare. But all 11 of these guys certainly are.








** Dahlen (Boston) and ** Spencer are without a doubt the most difficult to find of the Elite 11 group. Here is the timeline of the transitional status of 10 of these
players during the time American Lithographic started printing PIEDMONT 350 backs.


Bill Dahlen............... Oct 27, 1909....signed by Brooklyn. [this may explain why Dahlen (Boston) was short-printed].
Bob Ewing............... Jan 10, 1910....traded to 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......... Circa July 1909....after catching 28 games with Boston, he quit them for the season [this may explain why Spencer was short-printed].
............................. In 1910 he played for the St. Paul Saints (American Association).
