A T219 Thread

Just to confirm HLC green back Kaufman and Nitchie. Mark them as known as seen. 👍

I don’t really collect the T219s, but I have a few that were in T218 lots. I did notice that the Miner’s Extra Jeannette card has the single “n” name on the back like some of the Hassan T218 versions. Interesting.

Never thought to check mine, I will see if my Jeannette's carried over the original H30 spelling error or the correction on the other backs tonight.

The 2 Miners Jeannette's on eBay both have the single "n" spelling. No Honest's listed to check out.

Interesting the Miners doesn't seem to have used the later correction, as T219 surely came long after the change was made.

Both my Honest's and my Miners Jeannette use the single "n" spelling as well.

I had a near set of low grade mixed ME and HLC that I sold at auction about 10 years ago. I had picked them up 1 by 1 on the cheap, and wasn't too worried about completing the set. I bought 3 Red Cross about 20 years ago from a Festberg auction. I faxed an up-to bid of $750 and won the lot for $750. I thought I was collecting the Red Cross backs, but never added anymore to my collection. I sold them at auction, about 7 or 8 years ago, for about $450.

I think I have about 3 or 4 Red Cross now, including this Attel, that I won for like $375. If it were a baseball card, I could not afford it. I know I saw at least one near set of Red Cross sell at auction in the last 10 years. FWIW

Didn't know about Hull, but obviously had a great collection.

There was the full set of 50 that sold a few years ago.

This lot of 44: https://sports.ha.com/itm/boxing-car...a/7051-80859.s

This batch of 38: https://sports.ha.com/itm/boxing-car...a/7075-81059.s

The eBay batch a few months ago that someone totally stole.

And 1 or 2 others, I think.

As far as I'm aware, most of the batches are not put together by contemporary hobbyists, but are finds kept together. Seems the only chance at completing a set now is this avenue
