W600 Sporting Life Cabinets - back-stamp
I just finished re-scanning a whole bunch of my cards, including my W600's, and noticed that my Mordecai Brown has an interesting back-stamp (see close-up scan below).
Interestingly, three of mine (E. Collins, C. Bender, and E. Walsh) have hand-written notations in pen at the top showing when the player was elected to the HOF and the years they were alive. I bought them all separately, but obviously they were all owned by the same person at one point. I wonder how many others are out there... But, back to my observation. Does anyone else have this back-stamp on their W600 cabinets??

Sure - I'll post later today when I'm back at my computer.
I looked through the threads on here and didn't see anything about the back-stamp. I had assumed they were all blank-backed.

About 1/3 the ones I had had that back stamp. Also had some with a back stamp of a previous owner noting something about a train depot or something in Indiana I believe.....Scott May have some of those in his collection.....

W600 back writing
Here's the writing on the back of several of my W600's that I mentioned in my OP. Anyone else have similar ones or know who wrote it/ owned them?
I have at least three w/ similar writing on the back. Sorry for the large scan...

Not sure on the writing, not whom I thought it might be. As Tom stated there is a News Depot stamp also found, which was a reseller of "Sporting Life", these are also not that rare. To my mind, neither stamp brings any premium to the W600's, I have never seen any extra action because of them.
