Default T206 JACK DUNN....Babe Ruth's 1st manager

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

You guys can continue this debate till this thread goes into triple digit posts. However, I have not
heard anything that can convince me (and others) that this T206 of Jack Dunn was designed as a
horizontal card. I'll repeat....this Jack Dunn card is in the 350 Series. There are 216 - T206's in the
350 Series, and not one of them is a horizontal card.

Here are indisputable examples of horizontal cards. What distinguishes them as such......

1....the player's horizontally formatted pose

2....the background artwork is horizontally drawn, congruent with the player's pose.
















Is there anyone out there that would like to further this discussion regarding Jack Dunn's career......
and, his mentoring of Babe Ruth ? There is much more to be said about an unheralded player/manager
like Dunn and his close association with the greatest BB player of all time, Babe Ruth.
