[/B]This thread will provide references to major contributions posted on Net54 these past 14 years that have formed a better understanding of "The Monster" [as Bill Heitman
so aptly coined his T206 book (circa 1980)].

Let's start with the 2005-2006 publication of Scot Reader's Inside T206
An excellent, very informative, and well written book that inspired many of us Net54ers to post our experiences and theory's regarding the complexities of the T206 series.

One of the early and very significant T206 threads was posted in June 2006 by Barry Arnold, titled T206 EPDG- - - how rare in your collection ?
This thread sparked lots of brainstorming among Net54ers regarding T206's. It included surveys; and, various aspects of the T206 series were explored.....resulting in 363
meaningful posts. Furthermore, between many of us Net54ers, this thread was...."the beginning of a beautiful friendship" (to quote Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca).

In the Summer of 2006, Bill Brown posted his T206 Super-Set (excel) spreadsheet. Bill received 1000's of inputs from Net54ers for this spreadsheet. It was a great start
in the pursuit of what a T206 "master" set would be comprised of....T206 Super-Set

Sept 2007, I started a thread titled Joe Doyle NAT'L and it's 11 "cousins"....SURVEY to explore certain PIEDMONT 350 cards that I considered as rare as the Joe Doyle
"error" card. I eventually referred to these particular T206's as the Elite 11


Subsequent posts in this thread will expand on theory's regarding the structure of the T206 series and the front/back permutations that have resulted. A fair number of the
theory's presented on Net54 (since 2006) have withstood the test of time. Providing accurate lists of which front/back combos were printed. And, which ones are No-Prints.

So, stay tuned......many more T206 "oldies but goodies" References and Reflections will be posted here.

And, feel free to contribute any meaningful T206 stories, or experiences collecting T206's that you have.

In this thread, I've tried to present some very complex aspects of the Series structure of the T206 set in a style which is understandable to most of the T206 collectors.
However, if not clear, don't be shy about asking questions. Post your questions on this thread. Or, email me directly with your questions.... tedzan11@comcast.net
In either event, I will gladly do my best to provide you clear and meaningful answer(s).

Default T206 REFERENCE....show T206's with same name on top or different player's name on top

Southpaw pitcher Bill Burns had a similar pitching style as Eddie Plank, which was a "crossfire" motion (that really
rattled Ty Cobb). Burns pitched for 5 different teams during his 5-year career (1908 - 1912) in the Major Leagues.
Burns was one of the group of men who allegedly participated in the "Black-Sox" scandal in the 1919 World Series.

Giving this thread a friendly bump with another double same name T206. And, perhaps some of you will add to this gallery of anomalies.

This is one topic I don't think I have anything to share. Mainly because I purposely stayed away from miscut cards. I might have a couple minor one's but would have to dig out the cards and devote a day to see what I might have. I do have plans to scan the fronts and backs of all my T206's and share them on a website for everyone to see but that might turn out to be a winter project. Plus I'm still working on my T205 website and a T59 Flags site as well.

Future websites:

Hi Ron

I am looking forward to seeing your T205Resource website again. Perhaps you can give me a ballpark figure of how many T205's were printed
with the PIEDMONT Factory #42 back ?

I've recently picked up a bunch of them; and, was wondering how many would be in a run (if I was foolish enough to take on this challenge) ?

I don't have my checklists complete yet but the Piedmont 42's are in the mid 70's. I just listed a group of T205's for sale that included 10 different Piedmont 42's.

And, here's another double-same-name T206. Barely legible; however, under magnification, the top name is the same.

This site is amazing as far as the work done to identify so many rare issues. I did discover a brand new BL 460 according to the list I just viewed. It is a Magee. I’ll post an image of it a bit later. Thanks for all you do.

Hi runandgun

I appreciate your compliments.

I checked out your post today, and I must say that the Magee BROAD LEAF 460 card is absolutely amazing.

I added it to my BROAD LEAF 460 confirmed list in Post #101 in this thread.

Thanks, again.

Default T206 BROAD LEAF 460 group

Near the end of the T206 press runs (circa late 1910-early 1911), American Lithographic separated the 63 subjects in the 350/460 series into two print groups. I have
identified these 2 groups as A and B.

Illustrated here are the 35 subjects that were theoretically printed with the BROAD LEAF 460 back. To date, 29 of them are confirmed with the BROAD LEAF 460 backs.

Identified here are the 6 subjects from Group A that have yet to be discovered with BROAD LEAF 460 backs. I expect that these 6 guys will eventually be discovered with
the BROAD LEAF 460 back.

Group A ......

---------- Ames --------------------------------------------- Bender -------- ------------------------------------ Chance ------------------- Chase ------------------ Chase

There are a number of great books about the early days of BaseBall. And, of course one of the best is..... " The Glory of Their Times ", by Lawrence Ritter.
The book I really enjoy reading as well is..... " The Year They Called Off The World Series ", by Benton Stark.
Benton Stark is very descriptive in his stories of each player, your mind will visualize them playing the game.

The 1904 season was a series of unbelievable events of which we have not seen the likes of in BaseBall ever since.

Here's a list of T206 guys from the three teams that were in contention at the end of the 1904 season. All together there are approx. 70 players which are
featured in the T206 set....that as you read about each one of them....they become alive in your mind.

.... Sweet Caporal ..... Sovereign ......... Piedmont_____The "House" that created these Tobacco cards_____Old Mill ............ red Hindu ...... American Beauty
........... 150 .................. 150 ................... 150


So, no World Series played in 1904, but there was joy in "Mudville".... because the Buffalo Bisons of the Eastern League defeated the American Association's St. Paul Saints,
2 games to 1. Buffalo was the 1904 "World Champions". This event was referred to as the "Junior World Series".

I acquired this very rare beauty in Cooperstown (circa 1991) from a customer who came to the HOF weekend BB card Show. He found the T206 cards he was looking for at
my table. So, I traded him several T206 stars for this classic 1904 piece of BaseBall history.

I have searched for about 34 years to find another one of these 1904 Buffalo team cards. But, no luck. I'm curious, if any of you have one, or have seen one ?

Well, it's been at least a week since I posted my Buffalo Bisons piece. I was hoping for some response regarding this, or any other related artifacts.

I do not think this piece is unique, yet after searching for 34 years for another like it, I'm now beginning to wonder.

Again, I would really appreciate any information.

Default T206 REFERENCE......"pet peeves" regarding certain T206's....and, what are your's ?

* * * * * * * * * * * * T206 Reflections, Theories, Surveys, etc. * * * * * * * * * * * *




Approx 90% of the PIEDMONT 150 cards of the green portrait Cobb are found off-center (to the top). Furthermore, the Cy Young portrait with the PIEDMONT 150 back
is usually off-center (to the top). I can attest to this, having sampled over 400 cards of each of these T206 subjects since 2005.

You may ask why I am concerned over this ? Why not just select a PIEDMONT 350 Cobb (which is usually well-centered). Simply stated, just call me a perfectionist, who
insists on having well-centered PIEDMONT 150 Cobb and Cy Young card in the 150 Series section of my all-PIEDMONT set. Quaint thinking, perhaps, but that's just me.
I've had this Cobb for many years. It's one of the best looking T206's in my collection. Eventually, I intend to get it graded. My guess is that it will get a high #.

The green Cobb and the Cy Young portrait were most likely printed in the top row of their sheet. And, these early PIEDMONT sheets were mis-cut resulting in the narrow
top borders on the cards located on their top row.
American Lithographic (ALC) printed the PIEDMONT brand first in press runs of T206 backs (on the preprinted sheets of T206 fronts). Proof of this process is revealed by
the Magie and Joe Doyle error cards. The Magie is ONLY a PIEDMONT 150 card, and the Doyle error is ONLY a PIEDMONT 350 card.

Having said all that, I'm curious....do any of you serious T206 collectors have similar "pet peeves" regarding certain T206 cards ?


If so, show-n-tell about your T206 "peeves"

Ted (Hi Ted), I think collectors opt for the OC Green Cobb in the 150 series (versus 350) because the ink and clarity is always better. Maybe Cy too.

They were definitely in the top row of some of the piedmont 150 sheets

Young Large Top Border.jpg

but they weren't just in the top row

Young (Port) Split Front PD 150.jpg

Cobb.jpg

they are both also on the same piedmont 150 plate scratch sheets. This isn't
necessarily the full sheet but it is the minimum size of the sheet based on
lining all the known plate scratches of these subjects up.

Your Cobb does have a plate scratch and the scratch lines up here on the sheet

It is a sheet with a lot of great players and I believe Wagner might have been on the same sheet for a short period.

The artistry overall seen in the T206 set is really nice, but for some reason the cards that are not at that same level really bug me. Here is an example of one. Emil Batch. It would be interesting to find out if anyone but a relative or Rochester collector would even think of collecting a back run of him. As seen by the photo, perhaps the artist didn't have much to work with, but still he didn't have to make him into such an egghead.

Default T206 REFERENCE....."pet peeves" regarding certain T206's....and tell us of your's ?

Hey guys,
I have to differ with you.

The T206 Honus Wagner is a 150-only Series subject. All the subjects on the sheet in Post #1073 are 150/350 Series subjects.
Therefore, it is impossible that Wagner was printed on that sheet with those cards.

Furthermore, this 5 card strip.....



......is NOT an authentic production piece. It is simply a strip of "proof" cards which American Lithographic (ALC) put together.
The story goes that ALC did this, gave it to Wagner in order to persuade him to permit them to print his image on T206 cards.

Note....that Brown, Bowerman, Kling and Cy Young cards are missing colors on their uniforms. This certainly tells us that this
strip is not a standard production piece.

I don't understand this reasoning, all of the other 150 only subjects were
pulled prior to the transition to the 350 printing except for Brown (Chicago),
Magie and Wagner. Wagner was pulled quickly so I don't think it's a stretch
to say he was on a sheet with 150/350 subjects and it's
almost certain that he was. You yourself have stated many times that you
think he was on the same sheet as Plank who is a 150/350 subject.

I only stated that he might have been on this sheet based on the Wagner strip. I'm not sure what the odds are but they have to be pretty high
that out of 150+ subjects the three subjects from the strip that have confirmed plate scratches are in the exact same position on this plate scratch sheet as they are on the strip.

Default T206 150-only Series cards......

American Lithographic initially printed 12 subjects on a sheet which were the first T206's (issued circa Spring/Summer 1909). Depicted here are these 12 guys............






The above 10 subjects were issued with these 5 backs......





The Wagner and Plank were printed with PIEDMONT 150 and SWEET CAPORAL 150 (Factory #25 & #30)......but, were issued only with the SWEET CAP brand.

. .




Furthermore, for a very short period, American Litho continued issuing the Plank card (with the SWEET CAPORAL 350 Factory #30 back) against Eddie's wishes.

Eddie Plank was very anti-tobacco (in any form) **


Pat R
You are entitled to your opinion. However, as I see this, the Plank card is a true 150-only Series card. As is the Honus Wagner card.

We do have different opinions on many things in the t206 set but it's not
an opinion that Plank is a 150/350 subject it is a fact.

150 only means exactly what it states only printed with 150 series backs.
Not only was Plank printed with a SC350/30 back of all the know examples
there are twice as many SC350/30 backs as there are Piedmont and Sweet
Caporal 150 backs.

In this Plank Gallery of the examples with back images there are 16 PD150
and SC150's and 34 SC350/30's.

Some cards in the 150's were printed three different times.
And I'm fairly certain that the masters were changed between the 150 and 350 series, and that the first P350's were done on leftover sheets from 150 production.
350's also were redone, maybe also 3 times, but usually the adjustments were less obvious.

The 150, 150/350 thing is a start, but a simplification that we should let go.

Default T206 Eddie Plank story

Hey guys,

Well, I am going to repeat here (for those who have not heard this before) what I've mentioned about this subject
several times in the past on this forum. The Plank card is a unique oddity in the T206 set. Here is how it starts......

As I've mentioned above (Post #1080) and numerous times in the past, Eddie Plank disdained any form of tobacco.
He informed ATC that he did not want his image on their Tobacco card. I researched all this years ago, including a
conversation with a Philadelphia lawyer, who informed me that you needed only a "cease and desist" order in 1909
to prevent your image from appearing on anything that offended you. Plank is depicted on numerous E-type Candy
cards during that period. The only other Tobacco card he appears on is the 1909 Ramly. At the end of his Major Lge.
career (circa 1916) he's featured in the T216 Tobacco cards (KOTTON, MINO, VIRGINIA EXTRA brands). These were
not ATC brands. The images on these card are from the printing firm which produced the E90-type cards.

The T206 Plank card cannot be referred to as a "150/350" card since it was NOT printed with any combination of
EPDG, OLD MILL, PIEDMONT 350, SOVEREIGN, TOLSTOI backs (as are most 150/350 subjects). The Plank card is
indeed a 150-only subject. Plank was on the same sheet that the famous Gretzky Wagner was cut from.

American Lithographic printing the Plank card with the SWEET CAP 350 Factory #30 back is most likely the result of
ATC's desire to continue featuring Plank in the T206 set. Plank was very popular by 1908. In his first 8 years he had
167 victories (a remarkable average of 21 games Won per season).

I could continue with more stuff regarding my research into the T206 Plank, however I think enough said for now. I
have more important things to attend to today, than my repetition of stories that I've said before on this forum.

Hi Mike

Very interesting. I only have 150 Series green Cobb's.

Comparing my PIEDMONT 150 and SOVEREIGN 150 green Cobb's, the images and green color appear very similar....and, very nice.

In 2007, I completed a basic set of 402 different SOVEREIGN cards in less than 11 months. Having accomplished this, I went on to doing an all - SOVEREIGN master set.
However, I found this challenge to be quite a frustrating experience. Certain 150/350 subjects are very difficult to find with SOVEREIGN 150 backs. Illustrated here is an
example of this enigma. It took me at least 2 years to get the 150 version of this Wiltse card. Other "toughies that come to mind are....Bell, Camnitz, Flick, Fielder Jones,
Weimer, etc. Anyway, I'm on my way to completing this 476-card master set.

Default T206 REFERENCE.....Unique Antique CAR(ds).....Show us your "One of a Kind" T206(s)



Whoops ! .....I'm really referring to antique CARDS Anyhow, just showing-off this classic from my youth.....the 312 cu.-inch T-bird engine still "purrs".


This Herzog card is one of several unique cards which are (or were) in my T206 collection. The recent provenance of this card dates back to circa 1990's.
My great ole friend, Ralph Triplette, acquired this card from a small BB card shop in his town of Sylva, NC. When I visited him 7 years ago, we did a nice
deal for it.
This Herzog card is still the only one known with a UZIT back.

OK show us your unique T206 card(s). Furthermore the stories regarding these T206's are sometimes very interesting, so feel free to tell us about them.

Default T206 REFERENCE.....Unique Antique CAR(ds).....Show us your "One of a Kind" T206(s)

I acquired this AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 Jennings card quite a number of years ago. Until recently, it was the only one known with an AB 460
back. Now, the PSA pop report has two new ones listed (graded 1.5 and 2).

I sold this card to David Hall several Chicago National Shows ago. So now you'll find this Jennings listed in the PSA pop report as a 5 (David
had it re-graded). And, this same card is still listed in the SGC pop report as a 60 (I had it graded when SGC was in New Jersey, circa 2010).

Ted, I have several brown old mills, brown Lenox, and an E Collins blank back that are currently 1 of 1. I will try to post tmrw. I have many that are less than 5, and a few that are 1 of 2, but I don’t think I have any more “common” back 1 of 1s.

In 2013 I bought this Ames in Sterling. It was described as "unknown and thought to be not possible." I later traded it to a board member who said a few more had surfaced. I got a T205 Bresnahan closed mouth Piedmont 42 for it.

Rob.....you got the best of that trade deal. The T206 Ames (SC #42) is not that rare as is the T205 Bresnahan with the PIEDMONT #42 back.

The Ames with a SC 460 Factory #42 was known many years ago. In fact, 35 subjects of the 350/460 series (of which Ames is in this group) are found with this back.
Furthermore, this particular SC back is a "kissing cousin" with the red HINDU back. These 2 backs were printed simultaneously. To date, 33 of this group of 35 subjects
are confirmed with red HINDU backs. But, Ames has yet to be confirmed with the red HINDU back. My prediction is the Ames will discovered with the red HINDU back.

I have this Magee that seemed to me to be a card that shouldn't exist (Sweet Caporal 460 factory 30), until I showed it on here and the speculation was that the overstrike was not printed.

So probably a misprint, but I still haven't seen any other like it...

Ted, I was going with the AH's description, I had no knowledge at the time whether it existed or not. I don't think the Resource site had confirmed it in 2013. Maybe Sterling remembers the details. Anyway paid $55 and traded it soon after for the T205.

Here's a Doc Crandall Red Hindu, not a 1/1, but a low pop card. A Uzit popped up on here and I had a couple of chances to bid on it later, but did not.

Also, here's a Crandall SC460 42. Sorry to get off track from the 1/1's. I'll try and think if I had or have anything that came close to a 1/1. If I still had my 1980 Fiat or 1973 BMW 2002, I would post those, sadly, they are long ago traded away.

FYI Ted there are a minimum of five Jennings, there are two different PSA 2's
one was graded years ago before they started putting the backs on the
flips. There's also a 2nd SGC 60.

The SGC card of Jennings you have displayed is the exactly same one I originally had. This is obvious by the same "diamond cut" on all of three
of these cards on display. Furthermore, it's obvious that it has gone thru a 4th iteration of SGC Grading.

When I acquired it was Graded by SGC as an "A"......

. .

-----------------------

I cracked open the "A" version (card on left) and re-submitted it to SGC (about 10 years ago). Which resulted in the "60" Grade version.

You can trace the progress of these iterative Gradings by simply observing the Serial #s on their flips. Obviously, there was an intermittent
Grading of this card from the one you have displayed, in which it received an "A" grade.

As I have said, I acquired this card with its "A" Grade. I paid a very reasonable price for it (I guess because of this Grade).

I will reprise what I stated (in post #1088)....years ago when I acquired this AB 460 Jennings card, it was the only one known at that time.

Ted the SGC 60 you posted is definitely not the same card as the SGC 60 I posted.
