Wasn't there an Old Put on eBay a few years back being sold by a person who didn't know what they had? I can remember the card being in poor shape and the Old Put overprint was barely visable, but was there. I think the card was won by a board member.

Tbob,
It's still in there, page 268 in the 2009 Standard catalog. It does not bear a tobacco designation though, simply listed in the O's right after Old Judge. |

I agree with Bob. I think there are more E94 overprints out there than Old Put cards.
Jon: That's the blue Dooin that I won on ebay a couple years ago. It looks like it's been water damaged, but even though faded I can tell it's a legitimate stamp. Rob |

The person I was alluding to earlier still reads the board and sent these to add to our list. They go fairly far back. He had told me where he got them and it's one of my favorite dealers to buy esoteric stuff from, Ron Vitro.....what a great guy....

Very interesting!! Thanks Leon for digging that info up.
That makes two Dooin blue Old Puts and two Brown with red background unless it's the same example as Tim has. |

Thanks Leon, 2 more Blues and 1 more Red.
The Red Brown is not mine. Mine is a SGC 30 and the Brown pictured is a lower grade with paper loss in the bottom right hand corner and a curved crease on the left. So this means that there are 5 blues including 2 Dooins and 11 Reds including 2 Browns and Bob's missing Clarke. Leon, If I understood it correctly, I believe you said that the person who owns these 3 Old Puts STILL has them. Thanks for the great scans. Keep the scans and information coming if anyone can add to the checklist. ##Oh, I have always wondered why the Standard Catalog includes all 30 E98s when all of them are not known??? |

My understanding is that he does still own them. He is not from the dealer I was thinking of, but is from another one. He wishes to remain private at this time. I just appreciate the help as I know ya'll do!!
