Hey Ted..... I always thought this variation of Reulbach was a bit scarce because there was only the Piedmont 150 back. That is until I recently bought the Sweet Cap. Just how many different backs of Reulbach are there?

Thanks Pat. WOW! that Hindu is something. I'm going to keep an eye out for the Sovereign.

Here's the starting lineup from the 1908 Series, all raw, with Mordecai as the pitcher. (Tinker and Chance were cracked out of SGC holders, 20 and AUTH respectively.) These particular cards all have Piedmont and Sweet Caporal backs, but I have several T206 Cubs with tougher backs, including a Hindu red Chance (with front damage), a Cycle 460 Reulbach no glove, an AB 350 Pfeister throwing, and an AB 460 Overall yellow sky. I also have a Chance yellow portrait that looks much nicer than this red portrait, but I wanted the symmetry of having the infield be all "CUBS" portraits.
