I think it has been guesstimated in this thread by a few people that there is roughly 5-10 examples of each Type 1. I think that is a fair assumption, but I would actually push that down a tad, to more like 3-9 examples of each Type 1. I have been collecting these for a decade + and have only run across 1-2 examples of several players (Some have never come around), while a few others have popped up maybe, 2-3 times. The last time I looked at the pop reports for SGC/PSA, I think I took an average of each player and the net average came out to around 3.5 examples graded of each player. (I need to consult my notes further to be sure...) The Type 1's meet my definition of rare. I don't collect the Type 3's with the same passion, but I have tracked them as well for about the same time period and I think they are in lock step with Type 1's from what I can see. As far as condition, it is apparent by holding a type 3 and type 1 that the Type 3's are thicker and have sustained better condition over the century. The Type 1's are as thin as a piece of paper. Amazing they have held up at all over the years.

What about type 2's? Any thoughts on what their population might be? 50-100 still sound right? More maybe? Thanks again for the input.

Dean - My guess on Type 2's would be 20-40. Even lower for certain variations. Can be a pretty scarce type depending on player/variation.

Back in the 80's when the Southern Find was made, there were about 10-15 of most of the T213-2s, including HOFers, but only 1-2 of each of the cards of the T213-3s. I was able to put together a complete set -1 of the T213-3s with only a handful of duplicates. Of that set I would estimate there were 15% of the overprinted back variations. I remember having 2 Cobb batting overprints, 2 McGraw portrait overprints, 2 Doyle portraitt overprints and singles of the rest of them. I do not remember any T213-1s in the Find. All cards are gone now and in the hobby. I sold the T213-3 set to Bill Mastro and also a nearly complete T213-2 set to him. The T213-3s were all vg to exmt. A beautiflu group....
