Scott & Chris
I couldn't agree more. A lot of little gems still out there. I've picked up 4 two name T206s now and the most I paid for any one of them was just recently when I got the Barbeau/Strang for $30. Picked up a Jennings with a Piedmont back cut similiar to the Dubuc and the dealer actually lowered his price due to the miscut. I didn't see the Dubuc when it was listed on Ebay. I have been avoiding this seller because half the time his back scans don't load up and I've asked him questions about a card he was selling and he never replied. Jantz

Jantz, I have to admit - that Dubuc card does nothing for me.
I won a lot of about 400 raw T206's 8 years ago and would have lost money on it except for two upside-down backs that were actually centered pretty well. The Wiltse ghost front and Bescher ghost back were in a lot of about 250 raw cards. I do admit to springing for about $75 for this one, though:

Just for closure on this thread, I am the high bidder on the Dubuc miscut Piedmont back. Certainly not the coolest miscut, but I went after it pretty hard because I already own another Dubuc print freak and thought it would make a nice companion piece. It ended up going for more than I thought it would, but I'm happy to have won it. Slight back miscuts are pretty easy, but the more severe miscuts and especially the upside downs are pretty hard to find. Personally, I think such backs are underrated. This was the first severely miscut back I've had a shot at in a long time.
Totally agree with Johnny about the freaks. They are rare and they are unique, which is what makes them so cool. It's taken me quite a while to learn to appreciate them. My other Dubuc print freak is an upside down Sweet Caporal, which I will post in Johnny's T206 upside backs thread. Steve

Steve!!
You just hit the nail on the head!!!If me or Chris didn't win Dubuc, glad it went to you!!congrats and sorry for driving it up on you......great compliment to your dubuc sweet ass upside down....great pair of freaks...
btw steve....you actually got a bargain on the dubuc, those more severe miscuts like that are few and far between with that much dramatic miscut....great score....a sleeper card that will only gain more popularity once collectors realize how cool and really rare they are....that card you picked up is tough to hunt down, an example like that...just ask jamie... you did great my friend, if you ever want to part with it, u know how to ask.....

Few more miscuts while I got the cards out, the one with the top to bottom(90/10 cut) is cut the same on the front. The sweet cap printer mark is just along for the ride
