I had bid on this last week and lost the auction because 20 bucks was as high as I was willing to go. A few days later I got a Second Chance Offer on the card (I am guessing the high bidder didn't pay).

It's rougher than most of you gents collect but it fits in with my collection.
How rare is the Factory Overprint compared to other Magee cards?
Thanks

According to T206resource.com that back is fairly common, coming in at #28 of 39 total backs. I am not sure where the Magee would fall into it but it is a fairly common back. Nice card for your collection though...

I'd be fine with it. You and I collect in the same condition range. I generally like to get cards in that shape in the $12-$16 range, but I gladly stretch to $20 or a little more if there are no creases across the face and it's a player I am interested in. Magee was a true star of the era. I think it's fine. Enjoy it.

Great score, Sand...second chance offers are great sometimes.
Enjoy the Magee!

I wouldn't use the word rare with Sweet Caporal scroll factory 42

a bit tougher Magee and scarce would probably be better adjective than rare for this one also
