Posted By: <b>David</b><p>Thanks Cycleback, thats what I was thinking also. But what if it was made before that time? Just finding it interesting why they would choose the printing process they did, post 1999.<br />

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>I am just going to tuck away for a bit, until I can set up a more detailed interview with an experienced printer and he can look at it under 60-100x. Until then, it will look fine on the wall! Thanks for your help. I'll contact you if i find out anything new, or interesting. Thanks for your time Cycleback!

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p><br /><br />Oh well,<br />David, I was surprised this post got more than 10 responses in the first place. For it to last a month and a day is even more surprising, and even a bit funny. Then your last response topped them all <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><br /><br />My question, Are you going to bump this worthless post back to life again in 2 weeks?<br /><br />Frank

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>Frank, I, and I think others, didn't realize until today that the strip pictured near the top was the strip in question.

Posted By: <b>David</b><p>Only if I find something interesting Frank. I didn't mean to offend you or anyone else. Another one of my main points/questions, was to find out why ebay stopped the listing after 5 days, when I put it was a reprint. i was just wondering whose copyright I was infringing upon. I didn't make the thing, so I asked the question of where it did come from. Thats all. Thats what started me asking questions. And I won't know anything new until a knowledgeable printer can have a look. I know what I see under a 60-100x microscope, and its not like anything else I have. No big deal, like I said before, I learned a lot in the process, and believe I could identify the true T206's because of the research I did on this piece. So, a lot gained as I see it. As far as the orginal goes, and this thread going 80+, most of it is all speculation, and no one seems to know the true story...

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>Try scanning your fake strip and then uploading it to photobucket.com, a free image hosting service. Then copy the URL tag and paste the tag into your next post on this thread. That way you can get a nice sized scan into the thread without having to deal with the limitations of uploading through Net54.<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>robert a</b><p>No way, this thread's hilarious!<br /><br />I like the part where the reprint guy called Frank a forger.<br /><br />I've learned a lot here.<br /><br />Rob

Posted By: <b>howard</b><p>....I don't think anyone reading this thread thinks that David was serious when he suggested that Frank might be a forger. He has been getting attacked from all sides on this one for no good reason and you guys are surprised when he lashes out? The surprise is that it took so long.

Posted By: <b>PC</b><p>"Mystery Of The T206 Honus Wagner Uncut Proof Strip"<br /><br />The only "mystery" here is how this thread survived a month and why it is approaching 100 posts.<br /><br />I second the motion to lock (and preferably delete) this thread, due to what appears to be questionable motives by the OP.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>It's apparent to most of us that the originator of the thread owns an inexpensive reprint, but from what I've read he's been polite and curteous. I'll take him at face value in that he's curious about a item he owns.<br /><br />Today's laser computer printers can sometimes make unusual ink patterns that I can imagine someone could mistaken for a screen print with viewing under a magnifying glass.
