From what I've taken in from reading the articles on t206museum.com, there was a very substantial "find" in New York many years ago that included a large group of t206 and t3 proofs. This find included a well-known proof of an uncatalogued Eddie Collins card, which was purchased and later sold by Charlie Sheen (25k doesnt sound quite as astronomical a sum as it did 5 years ago, does it?)

I've also heard that several other proofs of uncatalogued southern leaguers have turned up as well - has anyone on the forum seen or handled any of these? I'm lucky enough to own a t206 proof of Mattern, a catalogued pose (scan below). Anyone else have any t206 proof scans/experiences to share? Could serve for some interesting discussion.
