Only Dahlen seems to be truly rare. That could be because he was pulled early, or just due to the random variance of a normal distribution.

Hey Luke

Your having seen one Lundgren / P350 in 5 years is luckier than most T206 collectors have been.

Incidently, it's 3 Lundgren's (not 4). I have been collecting T206's since 1981; therefore, acquiring only 3 - P350 Lundgren's in 36 years is certainly
proof that this front/back combo is very, very tough.

Furthermore, my experience collecting these guys is......Dahlen (Boston) is the toughest (next to Spencer) of the Elite 11. My theory explaining this
is that American Litho stopped printing the Dahlen (Boston) card since he changed teams (Boston, then Brooklyn) in late October 1909.
