Show some scraps other than T206
 

yes.....you read it right! I haven't seen too many "new" T206 scraps.....so I figured id check out what y'all got..........

I love wavy , fat , sexy borders!;)

THE WEIRDER THE BETTER:D

p.s.

Leon and Pete have some of my fav non-T206 scrap

JV- you feeling ok? you want to see cards other than T206?

Go take some Motrin and lay down.

;)

I have a rare error to show but will have to wait until I have a scan.

It is a rare 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle rookie with a blank back AND a blank front! A true error and the pride of my collection....................

You asked for it....
 

...and also are the one that told me the E98 is scrap! Anything for you, PS! Hope you enjoy.

Not sure it this would constitute as a scrap, but its the closest I have.

Somebody take Johnny's temperature!!

T212-1 Scraps acting as proofs, I guess...

From left to right are Christian, Cameron, Ragan, D. Lewis, Easterly (reversed)

Leon,

Don't you have a E98 Black and White of my Cy Young?

Have several of these odd-ball E121-120 cards

Here are a couple that probably fit. The e92 Nadja is just for comparison.

As the t206 monster is such a large set issued over 3 yrs you'd expect more scraps of t206 out there.

Here's one, I think Pete has one of these also.

I do mike...but mine looks less scraplike!

E97 black and white and some e100s

dunno Leon about that e97 b/w!!!!

I was only showing it as he asked. I don't think it's scrap or a proof. I think it's probably a very similar but different set.

I dug the T216 find ....

Yes...I wish I'd taken more advantage of the y216 bb find as they went reasonably priced and will likely be in collections for a while.

Thanks, Leon. Sorry Pete gave you a hard time about obliging me. I knew it was the same image, I just couldn't remember it exactly. Great 100s, by the way. I, too, dig the T216s.

these are
 

Great!!!!!!!!:eek:

T206 are still the best, but these are SEXY:D

Sexy is having this pair with their handwritten prices still on back!!

Crawford T216
 

Mike-

That is a sick card. Absolutely gorgeous color. I love it.

wow Jason...where'd u find that!!!!

Grandfather's attic

of course!!!

Nice card Jason.


Thanks Frank.

Scraps with ghosts are always a fan favorite. If these things (scrap other than T206) ever take off, it won't make me sad. ;) The top is the card...then the Crandall overlay and card for comparison.. Most members have seen these but we are still getting approximately 60-90 new registrants every month so maybe someone hasn't.

I hadn't seen it before. Very cool!

these
 

cards are BEAUTIFUL! I think I am just a freak at heart;)

Ed- I enjoyed you discovering your scrap.....felt excited for you.:) you scored a great card!...like finding a diamond in the rough( how ironic, huh?:))

I'm trying to find a favorite in this thread, but I love 'em all


keep 'em coming( if we can, they are so rare):eek:

Don't see too many D304 scraps....A weird and unique HRK E136 and a few M116 somethings...

Leon.....
 

:eek:

holy SCRAP!

I love those m116 no names and the wajo is cool!

I'm not sure if these officially qualify as scrap, but they seem like they'd be of interest to some people here. I don't know exactly what's up with the ragged right edges. Fullenwider could just be a regular card that got torn, but on closer inspection maybe not, given that at its widest point it's just about as wide as the regular T209-1 in my collection. Walsh is definitely wider at the top and the bottom than a regular T209-1, and it has an uneven left border, all suggesting that it was cut from a strip, or maybe a sheet -- the top and bottom edges also look uneven, now that I look more closely. On the back, Walsh has what looks like a wet-sheet transfer of the bottom half of the blue color from Booles in the same set, while Fullenwider has a factory stamp -- I'm not sure how common those are.

So, all you wet-sheet-transfer and scrap fans, what do I have here? I bought these cards as a pair years ago, cheap, because they were represented as badly damaged.

I heard there were 3 of the T209-1s with the blue wet sheet transfer on back and yours might be the other one :). It would go great with my two if you ever decide to sell.....I am your guy. Thanks for sharing, and yes those 2 have good value, though it's hard to say exactly how much.

CY Young
 

Great cards of Cy Young . Is that the same photo that is used on the T206 but identified as Irv Young?

I would like to mention that those are not wet sheet transfers but rather the blue ink was actually printed on the back. I think there is way too much detail for those to be WSTs. This is good for you guys because that cements that those are scrap and ought to make them considerably more valuable than if they were WSTs.

i've never seen a factory stamp on a t209...but then again I've never studied them?

Correct, I use the term WST too often. We have discussed these T209s before. I got one from Mike Ber.kus on ebay, many years ago, and the other from my auction partner....But I always heard there was a 3rd one. Too bad the price was probably erased on the back of David's (if this is in fact that third one). :)

Peter- Quite a few of the T209's had the stamps on back due to the mfg info not being on any packaging or the card itself.

Here's another card from the Berkus hoard...

Be well Brian

Thanks leon...cool stuff!

Hmmmm, interesting. Thanks, everybody! Leon, I'll definitely keep you in mind if I ever decide to sell these. Brian, that Hoffman looks hand-cut too, presumably from the same sheet.

I thought this T210 scrap from the most recent Lelands auction was pretty cool:

Edited to add: not my card, just a cool card

Great card Steve.

Steve....
 

that is a work of art!:)

Oh, I agree, great card...sorry, I should have made it clear that I didn't buy it, just wanted to share it.

For the record, not mine...just neat.

:)

Steve

I was in on it for a while. Got outbid by two or three increments. Spectacular oddity.

Tom C

Very Scrappy!
 

Here is one that might be unique. I really like the upside down ghosting on the front side borders. Am thinking about parting with it for the right price . . .

Here's my E98 scrap...

Rob....
 

although not "technically scrap" that crofts is a BEAUTY! double ghost front/ mc upside down back.....very sweet!

GREG! An ABSOLUTE BEAUTIFUL blank back! :eek: NOW that is sweeeeeeeeeeeet scrap NOT crap:)

That's a pretty awesome card!!

Thanks, Man! THAT is the NICEST thing that you have EVER said to me!!! :D
