Posted By: <b>Dwight Davis</b><p>This is the back of a T206 Isbell, Chicago. Wondering if anyone is familiar with name stamp "Richard Montague." Appears to be a Boy Scout symbol at the end of the last name.<br /><br /><img src="http://i243.photobucket.com/albums/ff242/unclerube/momtaubstamp.jpg"><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dwight Davis</b><p>I was hoping someone would recognize this name as a vintage collector. Obviously not.<br />Perhaps it is the Richard Montague who was one of the most renowned theorists of our time. I'm doing some research.<br />Or, alas, may be the stamp of Dan's college roommate.<br />Thanks

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>Never hurts to ask.....Lots of stamps on these old cards of ours...most are just regular old stamps and don't really add a lot to them.....but I, and many board members, like the ones with significance....Good luck finding more info on it...

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>The symbol is the fleur de lys, which was also the logo on the old St. Louis Browns jerseys and caps. It is a common symbol and if you google image "fleur de lys" you will see a zillion different examples.<br /><br />But I don't know the Richard Montague who stamped your card. <br><br>_ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ _ <br /><br />Visit <a href="http://www.t206collector.com" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206collector.com</a> for my blog, interviews, articles, card galleries and more!<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dwight Davis</b><p>Very helpful. I knew someone on the board would have some insight. Could be a case-breaker. Thought I was going to have to call David Carradine (Wonderful T206 Website, btw). <br />
