Hello all,

I was just wondering if anyone had any knowledge of the relative Rarity of t207 blank backs to t206 blank backs?

Thanks,
Lee

Lee,

I think it's hard to say.

When blank backed t207s hit the scene last year, no one had ever seen them before. Then, suddenly the market was flooded with them. This created a lack of demand for them relative to the blank backed t206s which have been on some back collectors' wantlists for some time.

back collectors wantlists for some time...?

That sounds so funny. I (very honestly) am not criticizing, but it just sounds funny to collect the absence of something!

I have seen past posts (did a search) for t207 blank backs on net54 and came upon the t207 blank back find post from 2005. It sounds like there were a lot of them on the market a few years ago, but I believe they have since dried up. In the past year, I have seen or know of 5 blank backed t206's that traded hands, including my current blank back t206. As for beyond / earlier than this past year is what I was wondering about, because i just got back into the hobby about a year ago. I was wondering about the broad scope of maybe a few years to 10 years of Blank Back history if anyone knows.....Thanks for the input so far.

jason- as funny as robert's statement sounds, i can relate to it for sure...i would consider myself an advanced T206 back collector, and an authentic (unskinned) "blank back" eluded me for so long. i just recently did a trade with a fellow board member for a clean vg example of a common T206 (it appears to be hand-cut), and i am very excited to finally have a blank back in my "stable".

Lee,

I believe Frank Ward has about 15-20 for sale right now.
Check out his website on the board links.

I just checked out Frank's site, but he does not have scans on there. Also, he stated that he is not selling cards this summer.

Ok, now that I know there are plenty out there, what do you guys think a poor condition one that looks vg-ex (but hand cut) with the obvious defect that brings it down is a small tear?

Guys, all the t207s with blank backs I've seen are hand cut.
Most likely someone had a sheet or two of them and cut them down themselves recently.

i have a mcgraw that's hand cut...reasonably well. I don't think they're that common...they're just around cause theres not much interest...and maybe some suspicion. I DO think they're much rarer than t206 blank backs.
