Default Miscuts errors and what not

So on the t206 set a miscut, ghost image, wrong back and other errors are highly collected, but there doesn't seem to be any other set this holds true for.

Oddly I have sold a few t206 errors and just didn't see the draw, yet recently I came across a miscut Cracker Jack and way overpaid. Unfortunately it was touched up and the seller just had me send it back.

That being said I wanted it for two reasons, one to try to get an idea of how the sheets were set up and two because it was something different a unique card. I guess both these reasons would follow for the t206 set as well but are there others. What are the draws of these cards.

Errors and miscuts from other sets are popular too. I'm not sure why they wouldn't be, especially if they are dramatic ones.

I think wrt T206s, uniqueness is part of it, as is a desire to know more about the printing process. For all its popularity, very little is concretely known about the production of T206s. I suspect the uniqueness part is emphasized because there are so many T206s floating around out there.

Of all the thousands of Dode Paskert cards, how many look like this? For me, someone who loves T206s and is not a low pop high grade collector, this kind of uniqueness is much more achievable and far more interesting.

I think there are simply more examples of T206 cards in the market and more miscuts and printing mishaps to choose from is what sets the T206 cards apart.. there are some crazy T206 printing issues out there... way more to choose from than any other brand.

Although I'm not an error/miscut collector, when I was putting together an E95 set, I came across a weird miscut and bought it right away as a companion piece for the set.

The only other set that I've seen a lot of miscut examples from is the T201 set. They seem to pop up fairly frequently, albeit no where near the level of T206s.
