[/B]This thread will provide references to major contributions posted on Net54 these past 14 years that have formed a better understanding of "The Monster" [as Bill Heitman
so aptly coined his T206 book (circa 1980)].

Let's start with the 2005-2006 publication of Scot Reader's Inside T206
An excellent, very informative, and well written book that inspired many of us Net54ers to post our experiences and theory's regarding the complexities of the T206 series.

One of the early and very significant T206 threads was posted in June 2006 by Barry Arnold, titled T206 EPDG- - - how rare in your collection ?
This thread sparked lots of brainstorming among Net54ers regarding T206's. It included surveys; and, various aspects of the T206 series were explored.....resulting in 363
meaningful posts. Furthermore, between many of us Net54ers, this thread was...."the beginning of a beautiful friendship" (to quote Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca).

In the Summer of 2006, Bill Brown posted his T206 Super-Set (excel) spreadsheet. Bill received 1000's of inputs from Net54ers for this spreadsheet. It was a great start
in the pursuit of what a T206 "master" set would be comprised of....T206 Super-Set

Sept 2007, I started a thread titled Joe Doyle NAT'L and it's 11 "cousins"....SURVEY to explore certain PIEDMONT 350 cards that I considered as rare as the Joe Doyle
"error" card. I eventually referred to these particular T206's as the Elite 11


Subsequent posts in this thread will expand on theory's regarding the structure of the T206 series and the front/back permutations that have resulted. A fair number of the
theory's presented on Net54 (since 2006) have withstood the test of time. Providing accurate lists of which front/back combos were printed. And, which ones are No-Prints.

So, stay tuned......many more T206 "oldies but goodies" References and Reflections will be posted here.

And, feel free to contribute any meaningful T206 stories, or experiences collecting T206's that you have.

In this thread, I've tried to present some very complex aspects of the Series structure of the T206 set in a style which is understandable to most of the T206 collectors.
However, if not clear, don't be shy about asking questions. Post your questions on this thread. Or, email me directly with your questions.... tedzan11@comcast.net
In either event, I will gladly do my best to provide you clear and meaningful answer(s).

Southpaw pitcher Bill Burns had a similar pitching style as Eddie Plank, which was a "crossfire" motion (that really
rattled Ty Cobb). Burns pitched for 5 different teams during his 5-year career (1908 - 1912) in the Major Leagues.
Burns was one of the group of men who allegedly participated in the "Black-Sox" scandal in the 1919 World Series.

Great cards, thanks for posting them.

Giving this thread a friendly bump with another double same name T206. And, perhaps some of you will add to this gallery of anomalies.

This is one topic I don't think I have anything to share. Mainly because I purposely stayed away from miscut cards. I might have a couple minor one's but would have to dig out the cards and devote a day to see what I might have. I do have plans to scan the fronts and backs of all my T206's and share them on a website for everyone to see but that might turn out to be a winter project. Plus I'm still working on my T205 website and a T59 Flags site as well.

Future websites:

Hi Ron

I am looking forward to seeing your T205Resource website again. Perhaps you can give me a ballpark figure of how many T205's were printed
with the PIEDMONT Factory #42 back ?

I've recently picked up a bunch of them; and, was wondering how many would be in a run (if I was foolish enough to take on this challenge) ?

Very nice Dahlen....with Wagner on top, you have both Boston teams represented. Boston Nat'L on the bottom and Boston American on the top.
Thanks for posting this card.

And, here's another double-same-name T206. Barely legible; however, under magnification, the top name is the same.

I don't have my checklists complete yet but the Piedmont 42's are in the mid 70's. I just listed a group of T205's for sale that included 10 different Piedmont 42's.

[tedzan]

Near the end of the T206 press runs (circa late 1910-early 1911), American Lithographic separated the 63 subjects in the 350/460 series into two print groups. I have
identified these 2 groups as A and B.

Illustrated here are the 35 subjects that were theoretically printed with the BROAD LEAF 460 back. To date, 29 of them are confirmed with the BROAD LEAF 460 backs.

Identified here are the 6 subjects from Group A that have yet to be discovered with BROAD LEAF 460 backs. I expect that these 6 guys will eventually be discovered with
the BROAD LEAF 460 back.

Group A ......

There are a number of great books about the early days of BaseBall. And, of course one of the best is..... " The Glory of Their Times ", by Lawrence Ritter.
The book I really enjoy reading as well is..... " The Year They Called Off The World Series ", by Benton Stark.
Benton Stark is very descriptive in his stories of each player, your mind will visualize them playing the game.

The 1904 season was a series of unbelievable events of which we have not seen the likes of in BaseBall ever since.

Here's a list of T206 guys from the three teams that were in contention at the end of the 1904 season. All together there are approx. 70 players which are
featured in the T206 set....that as you read about each one of them....they become alive in your mind.

So, no World Series played in 1904, but there was joy in "Mudville".... because the Buffalo Bisons of the Eastern League defeated the American Association's St. Paul Saints,
2 games to 1. Buffalo was the 1904 "World Champions". This event was referred to as the "Junior World Series".

I acquired this very rare beauty in Cooperstown (circa 1991) from a customer who came to the HOF weekend BB card Show. He found the T206 cards he was looking for at
my table. So, I traded him several T206 stars for this classic 1904 piece of BaseBall history.

I have searched for about 34 years to find another one of these 1904 Buffalo team cards. But, no luck. I'm curious, if any of you have one, or have seen one ?





TED Z

[tedzan]

Well, it's been at least a week since I posted my Buffalo Bisons piece. I was hoping for some response regarding this, or any other related artifacts.

I do not think this piece is unique, yet after searching for 34 years for another like it, I'm now beginning to wonder.

Again, I would really appreciate any information.

Whoops ! .....I'm really referring to antique CARDS Anyhow, just showing-off this classic from my youth.....the 312 cu.-inch T-bird engine still "purrs".


This Herzog card is one of several unique cards which are (or were) in my T206 collection. The recent provenance of this card dates back to circa 1990's.
My great ole friend, Ralph Triplette, acquired this card from a small BB card shop in his town of Sylva, NC. When I visited him 7 years ago, we did a nice
deal for it.
This Herzog card is still the only one known with a UZIT back.

OK show us your unique T206 card(s). Furthermore the stories regarding these T206's are sometimes very interesting, so feel free to tell us about them.

I acquired this AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 Jennings card quite a number of years ago. Until recently, it was the only one known with an AB 460
back. Now, the PSA pop report has two new ones listed (graded 1.5 and 2).

I sold this card to David Hall several Chicago National Shows ago. So now you'll find this Jennings listed in the PSA pop report as a 5 (David
had it re-graded). And, this same card is still listed in the SGC pop report as a 60 (I had it graded when SGC was in New Jersey, circa 2010).

Ted, I have several brown old mills, brown Lenox, and an E Collins blank back that are currently 1 of 1. I will try to post tmrw. I have many that are less than 5, and a few that are 1 of 2, but I don’t think I have any more “common” back 1 of 1s.

In 2013 I bought this Ames in Sterling. It was described as "unknown and thought to be not possible." I later traded it to a board member who said a few more had surfaced. I got a T205 Bresnahan closed mouth Piedmont 42 for it.

Rob.....you got the best of that trade deal. The T206 Ames (SC #42) is not that rare as is the T205 Bresnahan with the PIEDMONT #42 back.

The Ames with a SC 460 Factory #42 was known many years ago. In fact, 35 subjects of the 350/460 series (of which Ames is in this group) are found with this back.
Furthermore, this particular SC back is a "kissing cousin" with the red HINDU back. These 2 backs were printed simultaneously. To date, 33 of this group of 35 subjects
are confirmed with red HINDU backs. But, Ames has yet to be confirmed with the red HINDU back. My prediction is the Ames will discovered with the red HINDU back.

I have this Magee that seemed to me to be a card that shouldn't exist (Sweet Caporal 460 factory 30), until I showed it on here and the speculation was that the overstrike was not printed.

So probably a misprint, but I still haven't seen any other like it...

FYI Ted there are a minimum of five Jennings, there are two different PSA 2's
one was graded years ago before they started putting the backs on the
flips. There's also a 2nd SGC 60.

The SGC card of Jennings you have displayed is the exactly same one I originally had. This is obvious by the same "diamond cut" on all of three
of these cards on display. Furthermore, it's obvious that it has gone thru a 4th iteration of SGC Grading.

When I acquired it was Graded by SGC as an "A"......

. .

-----------------------

I cracked open the "A" version (card on left) and re-submitted it to SGC (about 10 years ago). Which resulted in the "60" Grade version.

You can trace the progress of these iterative Gradings by simply observing the Serial #s on their flips. Obviously, there was an intermittent
Grading of this card from the one you have displayed, in which it received an "A" grade.

As I have said, I acquired this card with its "A" Grade. I paid a very reasonable price for it (I guess because of this Grade).

I will reprise what I stated (in post #1088)....years ago when I acquired this AB 460 Jennings card, it was the only one known at that time.

Ted the SGC 60 you posted is definitely not the same card as the SGC 60 I posted.
