He justs asks them nicely, and they all line up!!

looks to me like he places them side by side and then scans them, then rotates the scan, or lays them out on a table and takes a picture of them.

Thanks for the positive feedback, everyone! Jim, I'll put the Leach Brown Lenox on the shelf just under Wags... as unattainable.

As for the process, I gently peeled the the cards in half and laid them all out on the scanner ... took the images all in one pass, carefully glued the two halves back together again and re-inserted cards back in the slabs (where relevant, of course). I think I got them all back in the right places...

But seriously ... for those that have asked, I use Paintshop Pro for both scanning and processing - any image editing software will do. This is simple scan, crop, save, and so forth. Combining images to make a composite is also easy. If you have a little bit of programming skill, there's much more you can do...

Beautiful array of T206's.

From my info, I can 99 % guarantee you that this Leifield card will not be found with a Red HINDU back.
As a consequence, you don't have to worry about a BROAD LEAF 460 card, either.

This is supported by the fact that this card exists with an AB460 back and a UZIT back. These 2 backs
are mutually exclusive with Red HINDU in the 350/460 series (which this Leifield is in).

Incidently, a DRUM has been confirmed for this Leifield card.

Jamie, Mike and Ted
Great looking array of backs. I enjoy collecting like this, I still need
at least 4 more.

Always great to see that impressive run. Thanks not only for your positive feedback, but - as always - for your dedication and research on the Monster.

I've based most of my pop info on your (and others') surveys on the board and have made only one or two additions. The Leifield "Red Hindu" comment came about from your recent "Uzit/Red Hindu twins" thread where Scot R reported (in post #28) 2 such possibilities from the PSA registry.

Like Scot, I suspect (would like to believe) they may be mis-categorizations based only on your work on distribution/pattern identifications across the various backs... an image proving/disputing those categorizations would be useful.

As always, keep up the great work!

Great array guy. These player sub-sets are fun and a challenge that is not overwhelming.

As I see it, these are the backs you still need......

I really, really, really want the American Beauty that Ted sold last year! Let me know if you know the location.
