He played in only 30 games in 1909<br />and that was it for his 13 year Major Lge. career.<br /><br />Both of these Ritchey cards have Piedmont 150 backs.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.freephotoserver.com/v001/tedzan/aritchey.jpg">

Posted By: <b>T Engle</b><p>I remember my dad put this on Ebay a while ago.<br /><br />It looks somewhat like a faint dove.<br /><br />Sweet Cap. back<br /><br />T<br /><br />Edited because it got me wondering if there is more value of the dove than no dove. I hope this isn't like a rare type and worth way more than what it went for. Can someone shine the light on this for me. Maybe it isn't a dove at all.<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8803931619&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESO%3AIT&rd=1#ebayphotohosting" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8803931619&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESO%3AIT&rd=1#ebayphotohosting</a" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=8803931619&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMESO%3AIT&rd=1#ebayphotohosting</a</a>>

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>OK guys, remember that song....who sang it, and what was the year ?<br /><br />BRIAN W.<br /><br />At the risk of repeating myself....unless you have your T206 cards (or set) divided<br />up by Series, it is difficult to appreciate the difference in the Blue coloring between<br /> the cards printed in the 150 Series vs the 350 or 460 Series.<br /><br />The difference in the Ritchey cards on display in this Thread made me take a better<br />look at my set, and I noticed the Light or Pale Blue coloring among the 153 cards in<br /> the 150 Series. Then, I started noting a stark contrast in the Blue coloring in the<br /> subsequent two series. The one exception to this is the Waddell portrait which is the<br /> only card in the 150 Series that has a deep Blue color. I cannot explain why, perhaps<br /> it is an anamoly.<br /><br />American Litho. must have changed printers or acquired a richer quality of Blue ink<br /> when they started printing the 350 Series (and 460) cards. Some notable examples<br />of cards with a deep Blue color are Chase, Chase (dk cap), Chase (trophy), Clymer,<br />Groom, Knabe, Livingstone, Matty (dk cap), Nattress, Speaker, Thielmann, etc.<br /><br />And, my point of all this, is that the sky affect we are seeing in the Ritchey card is<br />just the result of a difference in the printing process with respect to the application<br />of the Blue ink in the "350" cards. And, not a re-designed sky with clouds. And, until<br />we see a Ritchey with a 150 back with the "clouds in the sky", I think this "Bluer ink"<br /> explanation is valid. <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>JimB</b><p>I have not seen the slightest hint of the dove in any of the posted 150s or P350s without dove. I wonder if a conscious change was not made by someone backstage. This would also support the Piedmont Primacy theory in that Piedmont 350s started out like P150's and then made a switch at the same time all the other brands in the 350 series began to be printed.<br />JimB

Posted By: <b>Jim T</b><p>Just based on the cards posted thus far, it seems that the dove effect is a result of the amount or richness of the blue used in printing the card.
