T205 Minor League Replacement Research

[T205 GB]

While researching a group of cards I noticed a pattern emerge from the group. After going through the entire list it became clear that I may have found the cards that gave up their spots for the ML's in the set, but there is more to it.

It has been long theorized that the SP's in the set were the sacrifice for the ML's. It is thought that the ML's are a later insert into the set which could mean that Hassan Fact 649 and PB's were printed during the last run. Its hard to grasp that considering that PB was a large run in both the T206 and the T205 set. Why would the ATC print a very large customer so late if this was the case? If it is true that the SP's were replaced by the ML's then why isn't there any of the SP's found with PB backs or the ML's found with a larger amount of PB backs since the run was large? I know it's far fetched but I think the below list of cards were printed first, the ML's then replaced those cards, and the SP's replaced the ML's.

The following cards I believe are part of a group printed together and are found without Hassan Fact 649 and have a lesser amount of PB backs printed for them and are the cards I believe to have been replaced by the ML's:

1. Barger Full B
2. Bender
3. Bresnahan Mouth Closed
4. Camnitz
5. Cobb
6. Kroh
7. Oldring
8. Smith
9. Street
10. Titus
11. Wallace No Cap**
12. Wilson





**The Wallace No Cap is the only card in the group that fits the pattern minus the AB. It is not out of the question to think that the Wallace could be found with an AB back due to the pattern and backs found with it.

I would like to hear any thought you my have in regards to this.
