A Uzit Frankenstein.

[Brian Van Horn]

I know. How dare I out an auction:

[ethicsprof]

a rebacked Uzit for 300 is quite a deal.
thanks for sharing.

all the best,
barry

would someone try to separate the two cards if they were to purchase this? I will certainly be following this auction, just to see if it sells.

Rebacked? Wow, why didn't I think of that? Now I can finally finish that Merkle back run.

Pretty darn certain it is a reproduction back, but according to the seller:
"someone glued the front and back together making this a legit rebacked T206 card"

It's not unknown to have a good side and a bad side of a card, so I have seen. Can't say for sure but the seller says he doesn't know.....which, he probably doesn't.

If you build it, they will come...

Hinchman (Cleveland) is a 150/350 series subject that was issued in 1909..

The UZIT back (whether it's authentic or not) is a 460 series back issued in 1911.

Therefore, what we have here is an impossible front / back combo.

The value of this "Frankenstein" card is less than $1.00 (and, no more than that).


Incidently, I have a Ty Cobb (bat off shoulder) with the same phony UZIT back.

"Uzitstein". Sounds like an Edgar Winter cover band.

Great comparison.....back is all wrong....at a quick first glance I can see where could happen....but 1000% not uzit........lettering thinner, location factory, letter shape, color, ect ect

[whelenfan]

fonts and type sizes are definitely different, it really helps when you get to compare a known example...
