T206 Backs - Burdick Catalog

[Archive]

Posted By: Mike Campbell

I know that Burdick's 1938 and 1946 catalogs listed Hustler as one of the T-206 brands, has a Hustler back ever been discovered? I have not been heavily involved in T Cards for a few years, so I was just curious as to this issue. I focus on 20's and 30's material. I trust that if they do exist, they would be quite pricy.

Do they exist on any other set of cards?

The back exists in the T-59 Flags of All Nations set.

Not sure if the brand is found on any other non sports set from the time...

It is found on a number of non-sports sets. These same sets contained all the same brands as the t206s, so Burbick probably assumed that Hustler also issued baseball cards. Even in the other sets, Hustler isn't a common back. When I put together my Flags set, I only had 2 Hustler backs.

A Burdick assumption. Later proven to be incorrect.

How common are Burdick assumptions which have been proven incorrect?

Or assumed to be incorrect, due to lack of evidence?
