Thanks Joe,
The T206 Joe Doyle Nat'l card was not....and WAS....known by the early 1980's. When Larry Fritsch apparently was the first in the modern era of the hobby to discover
this rare error card, there was at least one other such Joe Doyle card in existence.
I say "WAS known"....because Georgia Senator Richard Russell had one in his childhood collection. Russell passed away in 1971; and circa 1980, his 1000+ Tobacco card
collection was placed in a museum at the Univ. of Georgia (where it has been on display). His T206 set also includes a Ty Cobb/Ty Cobb card. No Wagner or Plank.
Best regards,
