Sovereigns
I'm sticking with my list of 123 Sovereigns...so I think your 125 number is wrong. Joshua, any luck finding those two cards? If so, I'd love to know!
Take Care, Geno |

Ron the Doc white comes with Quotes for all the backs its found with other than PB. Al PB backed Whites will have either No Quotes/partial quotes on right side . I would list the card variation as:
Doc White Doc White No/Partial Quotes Also I am arguing the Walsh pink baselines as a variation since none others have been found to exist and the odds of the card stock being subjected to a dye or ink bleed far outweighs the odds of another Walsh being found with the pink base paths. |
Geno,
Could not find either scans and I do not own either. I do not have Gardner as a Sovereign in my list. I believe that is a mistake. Beck is on my list but I could have made a mistake at some point. Joshua |
Um...I am not sure about not being able to have both Broadleaf backs. I have never seen one with both AB backs but here is a Phelps with an Olive back. I know for a fact there are at least two different olive ones floating around (one that Patrick Knoll had with a stamped star) and another auctioned a while back without a star stamp.
The Phelps Broadleaf is Olive...see a scan here http://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/6039172 Downey is in olive as well...a scan can be found by searching here on net54. |
I know Downey is olive as I had owned 2 different ones at one point but have never seen a black. As far as phelps I will look at my scans of the one I have and see the color for a positive reference. I will stand behind the BL's being either black or olive and not both. I can see a faded back fooling someone or the olive being really dark and not have great scans a the reason it appears black. Can we see 2 clear scans of any BL double colors side by side?
|
I'm going to check all my Broadleaf scans tonight but I do have a theory. Every Drum back has a Broadleaf couterpart. I would think that those 20 broadleaf cards would have the same color back, either black or olive green. Maybe those 20 could have both black and olive green backs or just one color or the other but that 20 Drum printing has to follow a pattern with the Broadleafs somehow. SGC shows a Jack Knight and Fred Payne with Broadeaf backs but the Master Checklist is still blank because of the color question.

Green broadleaf Moran No Stray Line on eBay right now.

Ron I think drum was run in less quantity than BL was. If they ran equals then drums and BL would be the same prices

Still haven't heard back as to why the Walsh error is on the checklist as an actual variation. Just curious:confused: |

Good luck with the site, Ron.

Having handled the Walsh I can assure you it was printed that way, no bleed or extra ink. The pink is precisely where the white should have been. Had I not been auctioning the card I would have bought it.

I too handled that card...in fact, I think it was Scott who sold it to a former board member at a show we were all at many years ago. It is definitely a color pass but I think it could be a pass that was a mistake (white ink pass first that had a bit of red mixed in by mistake). There is a Beck on ebay right now with an odd pink color pass as well. Do not think it is a variation but a true one off mistake at the factory. I have never seen another like it.

Not sure what to call it, one off, variation, etc. but is a legit T205 which saw circulation and is not printer scraps. Regardless of the moniker it's a very neat card. It is entirely possible only one sheet was printed like this due to human error and only 1-2 may survive.
|
I can add one card to the master checklist:
Ford, Black Cap (Sweet Caporal Red) |
I agree 100% that the Walsh is a neat card. I have no doubt the card the card is legit in the fact it has a pink pass. Just not in the fact it's a variation. Scott B sold me the Latham that started a 4 yr quest in obtaining or finding other to verify the variation. He also started my AB quest:). Thank you Scott for the great transaction and addiction you helped me start.

Thank you everyone for the recent additions and corrections. I made a temporary change on the Broadleaf part of the checklist. As a Broadleaf back color can be confirmed by an actual card owner or previous owner, the checklist will be highlighted. I'm sure many of the non-highlighted Broadleafs are correct on the checklist but will remain questionable until actual owner scans can be provided. I will keep the checklist this way until all have been determined to be either black or olive green backs.
Yesterday I removed two Sovereign cards, Fred Beck and Clyde Milan. If anyone can confirm that either of these two cards exist with a scan, I will add them back to the checklist. Thanks again everyone, Ron - T205Resource.com |
so far
Well, I pulled data for my SGC graded cards so far, the raw ones are still a work in progress. I don't think any of the 150 cards are unique to the master checklist already compiled, although I am not completely finished with that comparison...Hey I think I smell Turkey Dinner!
Ron, If you are lacking scans I can possibly help. I will email you the list. But for this post, I'll just show the breakdown of the SGC portion of my collection. I'm curious as to how this relates to other collectors: <u>Card Back Count Pct</u> American Beauty- Black 0 <b>0%</b> American Beauty- Green 1 <b>1%</b> Broadleaf -Black <sp>0 0% Broadleaf -Green <sp>0 0% Cycle <sp><sp> 5 3% Drum <sp> 0 0% Hassan -Factory 30 13 9% Hassan -Factory 649 9 6% Hindu <sp> 0 0% Honest Long Cut 18 12% Piedmont -Factory 25 44 29% Piedmont -Factory 42 2 1% Polar Bear 20 13% Sovereign 6 4% Sweet CapFact.25 Black 10 7% Sweet CapFact.42 Black 11 7% <U>Sweet Caporal- Red 11 7%</U> Familytoad SGC 150 cards |
