First off congratulations !! If the Ty Cobb back wasn't included in the back run I would've been very dissapointed but it was and is ! Will be an awesome work in progress that will never be complete, again congrats and thank you to all the people who worked and added contributions to this !!

A couple of comments......

(1)....Regarding your SOVEREIGN 350-Only checklist, you indicate that Bresnahan (batting) and Downey (fielding) as "confirmed".

Not so !

My research shows that these two subjects are SOVEREIGN 350 "No-Prints".

(2)....I'm quite skeptical of your claim that Crawford (throwing) "was not printed with a SOVEREIGN 150 back". My experience in
completing a SOVEREIGN 402-card set (and since, going for a Master set) indicates that 12 (perhaps more) SOVEREIGN 150/350
subjects were Short-Printed with respect to their SOVEREIGN 150 backs.

For example, the majority of the Wiltse (portrait, no cap) cards are found with the SOVEREIGN 350 back. The SOVEREIGN 150 card
of this subject is rare enough that the SGC pop reports indicate that NONE have been graded. It took me about 5 years to acquire
this one......

Furthermore, Brian Weisner has already identified a Crawford (throwing) with a SOVEREIGN 150 back in Bill Brown's super-set spreadsheet.

Check it out ?

As I told the owners of the site I would un-sticky this today, I have done so. I wish them all the best and hope to contribute more info in the future.

Hi Ted,
The entry on the Super Set is not correct... I own a 350 Sovereign Crawford:

Be well Brian

I own a SOVEREIGN 350 Crawford, too.

I have been hunting for a 150 for 6 years now. When I recently found the Wiltse 150 (above scan) after 5 years,
it gave me hope that the Crawford 150 would eventually surface.

What does Art Martineau say on this subject ?

Merry Christmas to you, old friend.

Hello Ted,
I began working on my T206 Detroit master set in the mid 1970's. Collecting was much slower in those years, but with the internet boom it became easier in the last 15+ years.
In over 30 years of looking I have never seen the T206 Crawford, throwing pose, with the Sovereign 150 back. While I will still search, the no-print lists make me believe this card will not surface with Sovereign 150.

Again, thanks to all who are enjoying the new website.
Art Martineau

Thanks for the response. While I will continue to search for this Crawford 150, too.......I think you have
pretty well convinced me that it is a No-Print.

Thanks again. And I haven't forgotten that I still owe you a dinner regarding my "A-B-C-COUPON-D" bet.

Will you be at Baltimore this Summer ?
