Jared....
i respect your opinion, but i can't disagree more... simply, then why are they called upside down BACKS ????????????Why does sgc grade them as such??? ?????????????because they are not "upside down fronts"....thats symantics......sgc does nt grade them as "UPSIDE DOWN FRONTS" ![]() when we look at a card, we dont just look at the "back" we HAVE to look at it in relation to the obverse.........they are taken as a whole card..... upside down back has more of a right to be on the list than cobb inmho, not just cause "i want to because i feel like it", but because it's not had any respect, when it deserves more respect than other backs.most came out of a pack, wether intentional or not, they exist and need to be in a t206 collection if you want a true back run... BTW....you dont have to differentiate every player in the yellow browns/ that is RIDICULOUS, just include that as a back.... ![]() I AM A UPSIDE DOWN BACK ADVOCATELOL

. A cobb back is a cobb back because of the back.I respect your opinion as well, even if I disagree. Good luck with your advocacy

I like your logic. Personally, I collect nothing but T206's that have BOTH an upside-down front AND an upside-down back. Scott

A few things came to mind (hey Johnny
) when I read the title of the thread.Some people do a back run of a certain player-in that case you'd have to know for a fact there was an upsidedown back for that player. Some people's back run will simply consist of one of each tobacco brand. Some people take it a little further and want an example of each factory from each tobacco brand. Then you have people who love the freaks and of course, that's where an upsidedown back fits into the picture. If you collect these types of cards, then I see no reason you can't create a list (as Johnny did) of scarcity- IMO EVERY freak card is a rarity in itself- many only one to a handful known- and the ones who collect these cards would be the ones to know the scarcity and the ones able to rank the difficulty. I guess my long winded point was to say it depends on what "type" of back run one is doing because not everyone does the same type of back run. Cool thread, I love the topic. Sincerely, Clayton |

MY friend great points
![]() Your absolutely right....a player back run w/ an upside down back might be impossible, but i mean more of the upside down as part of a back collection.....like getting all the backs....then a upside down is a must.... ![]() kinda like having a blank back, or a brown om in a back collection(collector trying to acquire all the backs)..... Thanks for your input and your opinion is very important.... ![]() Jared, thanks for brining out some great points, and i love your opinions.. ![]() I'm THE FREAK ADVOCATE
