T209-2 Roanoke Question
Posted By: Zach Rice
The brief discussion on the T209 Contentnea set yesterday sparked my interest in posting a question I had on the type 2s. I recently acquired my third example of a Roanoke player from the set. My first two are in less than deplorable condition and so is my new example, however, despite its condition, the background of the card is clearly visible. My question is does anyone know where these player’s pictures were taken and what is in the background of the Roanoke player’s cards? |

it certainly looks like they are at the waters edge, as you probably know from colecting the set all of players of each team appear to have had their picture taken the same day time and place. |

Looks like you'll cross that bridge when you get to it, and that your initial premise was "un-sound". (Sorry, it's been a long day). Your cards are pretty cool though. Please keep us posted on any updates-I'd help but I spent an hour messing around tring to help on that minor league/town team photo in another thread and its clear you've got far better sleuths than me on this board to help solve the mystery. |

The photographer, whoever he was, was creative and imaginative in selecting that background. |

It may be the original Wasena Bridge? The original was built in the 1880s and a new one was constructed in the 1950's. |
