Can Southern Leaguers have a Piedmont 150 back

[Cory]

I don't think so - but I see one listed for sale on Facebook.

Explanations -
I could be wrong and it's possible (but I don't recall ever seeing one).
Wrong back pictured (I messaged the seller to see if this was the case) most likely?
Fake
Rare/scrap/misprint?
Rebacked? but why?

I can tell a fake in hand, but not confident in my ability via picture alone. Any thoughts?

I don't believe so.

I believe it's just Old Mill, Hindu, and Piedmont 350

Sad to no longer hear Ted Z chime in on this. He was THE T206 sage.

All T206 Piedmont Southern League cards will have the Piedmont 350 back, so any of your possible explanations is indeed a possibility, except for you being wrong about never seeing one.

It's probably not, either a wrong scan or rebacked or something.

But, never say never.
One of the 150 only cards has a single known example with a P350 back.
I have a thought that Piedmont needed so many cards that occasionally a handful of sheets intended for other series were used up to fill minor shortfalls in a Piedmont shipment.

More common, are cards that appear to be rebacked with a paper layer of a different brand. Possibly also as a fill in or using up finished sheets that ended up as overstock.

It was cheap enough to arouse my curiosity. I'll blacklight it and put it under a loupe when i get it. Then post it here. Seller confirmed it was a 150 back. If nothing else I'll have a fake to learn from.

It makes my heart hurt not having Ted a call away anymore. We lost more knowledge in his head than he ever could have published for us.

Finally arrived - got lost in mail for 3 weeks. Scans attached. If it's a fake I can't detect it -

Doesn't "glow" under a blacklight
Smells old and musty like other t206
Printing looks fine under a loupe
Texture is correct.
Not visually rebacked. I admit I'm not familiar with rebacked cards - so not sure what to look for, but I don't see it and I can't "peel" it apart.

Any idea what I should do next?

Really interesting card Cory. Everything looks good to me if it isn't rebacked.
