T206 Errors?

Are cards such as this considered errors by T206 collectors? |

I can only speak for myself, but I would not consider these errors. If the picture was centered on the front and then there was no print then it would be an error. Looks like when these were printed the printer was not watching what he or she was doing and did not line up the sheet correctly. It is amazing what some people try to sell as errors. Rob |

Just a card that was miscut. You can see what everybody else has to say. Now if it was so far misalined that you have pictures of two players now that is an error. Rob |

it seems some collectors do. Some collectors these days collect anything remotely "different" from the norm. Maybe it is time for me to get the few of these miscuts I have and list them!? The ONLY error I have ever seen in these is that they are miscut however - use to be an error that would lower the value, but that seems to be changing. |

The way this 'error' comes about is that the card was the top card of the sheet. When it was miscut it had no name on the top of the card like other miscuts you see like this becuase there is no card above it from which to get the name form. |

I e-mailed the dealer (who I have bought cards from before at shows and online) and asked if they were trimmed. He said they were short top to bottom. I have seen this often. They were miscut and probably had a partial name at top which was trimmed off by a collector many years ago. These are not errors and in my opinion should be valued less than a complete T-206. It bothers me that this dealer who is usually very good would try to sell something like this as rare and an error. I have literally about a 100 of T-206s without names for the same reason. |

I just recently purchased a large group of T206's and in the group was a full sized Bob Unglaub with an enormous bottom border missing the team and the name. |

He attempted to sell it on ebay recently, but it didn't hit reserve - I think it was "Freeman". |

I know the "2 name" cards exist, I've never actually owned one. |

The dealer is getting the name of the player from one of the most popularly collected sets since it was introduced from a collector? |

Don't know why the seller would state the oppisite in an email than what was in the description." card measures correct". |

I must apologize to Mr. Craik...I got two e-mails confused as I asked another collector to look at the sizes and we went back and forth. The dealer did not say they were short but that they are miscut but measure correct. Like I said before, I have bought from Mr. Craik several times and have always been happy. Maybe I was just unhappy with the title "Error" since it seems to have taken on a life of its own in the past few years. Again, apologies to Mr. Craik and wish him well on the auctions. |

Here is a reall stretch for an "error" card. What do you guys think about this? I think the private auction says alot for it,. |

I think some collectors assume that all errors are worth a big premium. Something can be both a genuine and rare error (printing or design) and be worth little. Just because that unique and totally cool ghost overprint sells for $300, doesn't mean that any and every hideous T206 print job coming down the road is worth the same. Ugly is ugly, no matter what the rarity. |

My card has the same error, though it looks like a shadow to the text to me. I checked the Virtual Card Collection, it's in that picture, too. I'd bet that one without the shadow would really be scarce. |
