1930-71 Boxing Exhibits
I recently got this Sammy Angott error card on eBay from our favorite boxing card writer. Below it are the two correct cards.
I need 30 more cards for the basic set and 70 for the master set.

Not sure what you mean by master and basic, Jerry. I know I'm 30 cards shy of a full (for now) binder but there are numerous picayune variations (coloring, Made in USA placements, cropping, etc.) that I find every time I get a new lot. Part of what makes this fun...

Master Set Explantion
Originally, my goal was to complete the set according to the 2004 checklist in America's Great Boxing Cards. It did not include "Hometown" variations. In my own mind I considered this to be the basic set.
When I updated to the 2010-11 book the checklist included the "Hometown" variations. Naturally, at that point I the felt a need to complete the entire set. So, I describe this as the Master Set. Kind of a tribute to the hardcore T-206'ers. Probably makes no sense to anyone but me and I'm a little cloudy. I imagine I should drop the terminology since I have committed to the entire set per the current checklist. Last edited by Jerry G; 07-27-2010 at 10:20 PM.

I have terrible news for you, Jerry
 there are more... And I'm not counting the different shades, only the cards that had to be re-shot to create them.

Me too, buddy. Just when I think I'm close, they move the goal line...
Some of the variations are subtle enough that you have to have the cards side by side to see them. I've gotten to the point that I compare every card that goes through my hands with the ones already in my collection, just in case. That's how I uncovered some of the new variations. One of these days I'll have to do an update on my site.
