Info on T227, Series of Champions cards (hey Don!)

[jsfriedm]

Memory Lane has a really nice Cobb up for auction this week.

I was at the show yesterday too, and bought a 1915 CJ Grover Cleveland Alexander PSA 4 from Don. Thanks!

T227 is a fun set to collect!!
The cards are large in size and the keys to the set are Cobb, Johnson, Baker, Bender and Marquard. Attell is also a notable one. The rest are boxers, golfers, pool players, racers, runners, swimmers, throwers and wrestlers.

~2 out of 3 (66.74%) are graded PSA 1-2 and the cards are easily distinguishable by the different creases on the individual cards so it is easy to tell if a card has been crossed over

de Oro has the fewest graded cards outside of Brown and Rodgers

SGC distinguishes between the Honest Long Cut v Miner Extra backs on the flips
PSA simply lists T227 Series of Champ. so you would have to look at the actual backs to see the brand

Great Set! here is one of the toughies... C.P. Rodgers, lists his death on the back of the card.

I've only seen and Honest Long Cut back with this subject, anyone seen a Rodgers with a Miners Extra back?

Thanks!
