1950 Tinghalls World Cup Backs Thread
I have always been interested in back variations of cards. I love that one of the most iconic soccer card sets, 1950 Tinghalls - which includes some of the coolest & rarest team USA cards - has lots of different backs. So a while back, I started cataloging different 1950s Tinghalls backs.
As of January of this year, here are the different backs that I had cataloged:
*Note: I have consolidated hues of the same color (such as darker blue/turquoise and orange/red) in this list because I am not certain that they are different colors versus less ink of the same color. For years I have tracked Tinghalls on Swedish auction sites and have always been fascinated about two variants that exist for the local Swedish teams but not for the World Cup teams. One is a yellow/gold back letters, and the other more fascinating is what I call the "Dead Fish" back because it shows a picture of what looks like a dead fish. I assumed that these backs don't exist for WC players, only for local teams. Well earlier this year I found a copy of a World Cup player with the Dead Fish back, so I can officially confirm a 13th back variation of: 13) Dead Fish / Bordtennis Back - "Bast i Bordtennis Aidst i Bordtennis (Black Letters) Dead Fish Back - Bast i bordtennis Aldst i bordtennis (Spain - Basora).jpg Dead Fish Back Spain - Basora.jpg I am really excited to finally find a "Dead Fish" back for a World Cup player!!!! Now, I would love to hear from others who own Tinghalls cards about what backs you have. Some of the things I am wondering are:
Any other information or feedback on Tinghalls backs is open and appreciated in this thread as well. |
