I love the series one cards, the colors are rich. I picked this one up on eBay for a $100, after I had it graded I sold it and made a few bucks, he did go to a great home. |

Sold this one a few months ago on the bay. Beautiful set and tough in clean shape. This was the highest graded. |

Both the Type 1 color cards and the Type 2 black and white cards are very difficult. Lately, the type 2 cards have been impossible to find in public sales. During this entire “auction season” there was a single black and white T209, it was offered in a lot of Pre-War cards in REA. |

Hey Dave, welcome to a really wonderful set. Series one and two are the only sets I really collect. I'll show off some of my nicer cards--I'm four cards away from the Series 1 set, but I'm broke after REA! |

Before this thread dies, here is a T128 of the Contentnea Indians. The only difference between cards is the number in the corner. There are 46 known from 1-140. I have 28 of them and would love more. |

Eric, thank you. I have never seen those before. You may have already recognized this, but the factory and district number on your card is identical to the baseball series (Series I and the commonly found stamp on Series II). |

. . . is it really that hard for a type card collector to find a beater of the B&W ones (they make me think "minor league edition of Breisch-Williams cards due to the B&W phtography)? Any idea monetarily what a B&W beater could set you back? |

Mike, they're definitely easier than E107: I think a beater will set you back maybe $75-$100. If someone is going after that card, though, throw price guidelines out the window. |

Seth, thanks for your interest. I am always hesitant about putting non-sports up. According to the WTI and ACC, issued around 1910 and only 13 different numbers were known until about 5 years ago. You could find them occasionally, but they were always the same 13. Then the lot of 28 I acquired were all different than the 13 known. So that's 41. The non-sports board has upped that number to 47 different poses, so it's possible all 140 exist (existed). But of the known numbers, 30 or so are pops of 1. And I don't mean graded population - I mean known population. |

Dave-- your card is high grade, these cards flake REALLY easily, as Brian mentioned in his first post. And I think you got it at a fair price. Don't worry! |

Dave, there are certainly a number of cards that are more difficult to find than others. I am not sure of the reasoning for this as there wasn’t a redemption program available with any of the cards except the B.E. Thompson card. The card you posted, Foltz, seems to show up very often compared to other cards. After surveying collections and lots in auction houses, the rarities begin to shown themselves. |

I'm always fascinated looking at that Pope ghost on the McGeehan. Pope is the T209-1 I hope to acquire someday. The ghost image reminds me never to say never. |
