Approaching final confirmation of the BROAD LEAF 460 & Red HINDU matched "twins"

[tedzan]

My hypothesis that the 350/460 series of T206's with BROAD LEAF 460 and red HINDU backs were printed with identical fronts is nearly confirmed.
These cards were printed and issued in the Fall/Winter of 1910. The 23 cards listed here are approaching a final count of the BL 460 / red HINDU
matched "twins".

These 23 subjects have been confirmed with both the BROAD LEAF 460 and red HINDU backs......

Baker
M. Brown (Chicago
Cobb (red portrait)
Davis (A's)
Doolan (bat)
Downey (bat)
Elberfeld (Washington-fielding)
Evers (bat-yellow sky)
Griffith (bat)
Johnson (pitching)
Joss (pitching)
Kleinow (Boston)
Konetchy (glove low)
Murphy (bat)
O'Leary (hands on knees)
Rucker (throwing)
Seymour (throwing
Snodgrass (catching)
Stahl (glove)
Street (catching)
Sweeney (fielding)
Willis (throwing)
Cy Young (glove)


The following 350/460 subjects have been confirmed with the red HINDU back, but not yet with the BROAD LEAF 460 back:

Chance (portrait-yellow)
Chase (portrait-blue)
Chase (dark cap)
Donlin (bat)
Doyle (bat)
Magee (bat)

I would appreciate it, if any one on this forum can confirm any of the above three T206's with a BROAD LEAF 460 back.


Conversely......
The following 350/460 subjects have been confirmed with the BROAD LEAF 460 back, but not yet with the red HINDU back:

Dougherty (arm in air)
Mathewson (dark cap)
McIntyre (Brooklyn & Chicago)
Reulbach (no glove)

I would appreciate it, if any one on this forum can confirm any of the above four T206's with a red HINDU back.


NOTE....regarding red HINDU cards......

Unfortunately, in the 1990's, there were some unscrupulous (but very talented) scam "artists" who bought up many red HINDU common cards.
They modified these cards to create Re-Fronted star cards, which were so authentic that they fooled the graders at PSA and SGC.

Fortunately, these fake cards did not fool the T206 experts. As, the scammers were not smart enough to know the legitimate T206 front/back
combos on such cards as the various Cobb's, Matty's, etc. Therefore, most of these T206 fakes were detected.

But the bad news is....that we will never really know how many red HINDU cards were lost in this process.
