Heitman's t205, not t206

[Archive]

Posted By: <b>robert a</b><p>Can anyone provide (photocopy or other) me with Heitman's short work on T205 or point me in the right direction on other good articles written on the set. The only one I'm familiar with (besides lipset) is Kevin Struss' article in a VCBC back issue.<br /><br />Thanks.<br />Robert

Posted By: <b>Richard Dwyer</b><p>I didn't know Heitman did a book/article on T205. If it's anything like his "Monster" book, I want a copy too! How much and where can I get it?

Posted By: <b>J Levine</b><p>He did do a short article for the Trader Speaks on the T205. It did contain some slight omissions and errors but was a decent article. I have it at home and will try to scan a copy later tonight unless someone beats me to it. Love this set...<br /><br />Joshua

Posted By: <b>J Levine</b><p>I sent Richard a photocopy of the article...it does not scan very well...if anyone is interested it was published in the May 1980 Issue of the Trader Speaks...<br /><br />I also sent him a Kevin Struss article that took a lot of the info. from Heitman and added a bit...<br /><br />I also sent him a few of my observations and some additions and corrections to the previous two articles.<br /><br />Hopefully, he got it all...<br /><br />Joshua

Posted By: <b>tobacco-r-us</b><p>Thank you for the update.<br />As much as I'm into and appreciate the T206 set, my personal favorite is the attractive and data filled T205 set.<br />I am definitely interested in any information about the set.<br />I'll gladly wait for a scan Guru to scan it if that is possible, because I don't want to make it an added burden on anyone.<br /><br />I was just glancing at a booklet/binder that I won in an auction some time this year.<br />It's kind of beaten up, but it's interesting.<br />I don't know the exact year that it was published, but it's at least 50 years old.<br /><br />The title is, [The American Book Of Checklist] by Charles R. Bray.<br /><br />[This is a collection of the checklists as originally published in the Card Collectors Bulletin, Nos.1 - 60, with all known additions and corrections to 1950. List numbers are the same as set numbers in The American Card Catalog.]<br /><br />I found his acknowledgment very interesting.<br /><br />[Appreciation for the assistance and aid in compiling this book, goes to Mr. J. R. Burdick and Mr. Gene DiNardo.<br />While not complete, it is hoped that omissions will be reported when discovered, so that a supplement may be added sometime in the future.]<br /><br />I find it interesting, that the searchers and diggers of that time would be aware and concerned with omissions.<br />Omissions, not so much by a faulty memory, but the omission of the undiscovered, and unknown cards of that time.<br /><br />An example:<br />The T209 type II Contentneas.<br />There were only 130 known in 1950.<br />That's almost 100 less than what's known now.<br /><br />The hunt, the search, that's where it's at. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br />Joe P.
