Posted By: <b>Scott B.</b><p><br />So, what kind of conclusion can we draw on this "dot variation"???<br /><br />If that "dot" was a remnant mark of the removal of the word "Nat'l", does it means the infamous N.Y. Nat'l Doyle can be found in SC, PB and OM backs as well? <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Pennsylvania Ted</b><p>SCOTT B<br /><br />1st.....With the moderate sampling, so far, in this survey we can conclude that this "printer's mark" appears<br /> on an average of 1 out of every 5.5 Joe Doyle cards.....and, is independent of T-brand.<br /><br />2nd.....The "Nat'l" lettering on the few known Joe Doyle error cards (approx. 10 known to date) are exclusively<br /> on cards with PIEDMONT 350 backs. And, this fact will never change as T206 guys printed the Piedmont brand<br /> first on all the press runs. And, since they caught this error very quickly, it did not get printed with any sub-<br />sequent T-brand.<br /><br />3rd.....If our assumption is correct, that this mark is the remnant of the "N" from "Nat'l" (that was hastily re-<br />moved); then we can also assume that on the 3rd press run thay cleanly removed any remnant of their initial<br /> mistake. As the majority of the cards indicate.<br /><br />But, the real question is....if they went thru all these corrections, why didn't they add "Amer." next to N.Y. ? <br /><br />TED Z

But that's me.<br /><br />Ted, you can start by giving us the link to the other reports in the hobby that have said as many as 12 Doyle's.<br /><br />There's nothing worse for a researcher than misinformation.<br />To a brainpicker, it means nothing.<br /><br />Or you can step away ...

Posted By: <b>Rick McQuillan</b><p>This thread has been very interesting. So it looks like the extra dot cards are 5 times scarcer than the other Doyles. Will this have an impact on price? Will the extra dot cards be 5 times the price of the other Doyles, or will they carry a small premium, or does anyone really care enough about the difference to pay extra for this card? Will this be added to the T206 checklist? Will PSA put the "extra dot" version on their flip? Have the "extra dot" versions already sold for higher prices on ebay? I noticed that the Doyle extra dot card on Mike Wheat's website is already gone.<br /><br />I have enjoyed watching this thread develop during the last two months, and it will be interesting to see how this all plays out. <br /><br />Do we have an idea of how many Doyle's are out there? 100's? 1000's? And if 15% of these have the extra dots can we get an idea of how many variations are out there? Are they more rare than the Elberfeld Washington Portrait or Demmitt St. Louis cards?<br /><br />As usual, I have lots of questions and no answers. Hopefully the T206 experts can answer some of these questions.<br /><br />Thanks!<br />Rick<br /><br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>RICK<br /><br />I don't think there are many T206 collectors that care about this "printer's mark". Most trying to complete this set are just happy <br />to find a Joe Doyle. And, the reasons this card is tough to find are well-known.<br /><br />Recently, a "reader" of this forum did advertise "the dot" when he listed on ebay a Joe Doyle (with an Old Mill back that was graded <br />either a "4" or a "5"); and, he sold it for about $800. Whether the "dot" made an impact on the selling price is anyone's guess.<br /><br />I did not initiate this thread to establish some monetary value on this strange variation of the Joe Doyle card....but to inform and to<br /> stir up some thought-provoking conversation. As, my understanding was that very few T206 collectors were aware of this printer's <br />mark and the possible significance that it may imply.<br /><br />TED Z

SURVEY..is your T206 Joe Doyle a rare variation ?
 

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>UPDATED........Aug 27, 2007......4 new inputs reported No Mark (Piedmont, Polar Bear and 2-Sweet Caps.)<br /> <br /><br />T-brand.............Mark....No-Mark<br /><br />Piedmont 350........7.........27<br /><br />Sweet Cap 350......4.........34<br /><br />Polar Bear.............2.........14<br /><br />Tolstoi..................0..........1<br /><br />Old Mill..................1..........1<br /><br />Sovereign 350........0...........2<br /><br />EPDG....................0...........1<br /><br />Unknown back........0...........2<br />____________________________<br /><br />Totals.................14..........82<br /><br /><br /><br />With 96 cards reported, we have a reasonable random sample. At this point, I would say we have a better idea of the relative<br /> scarcity of the Joe Doyle...."wannabe error"....card with this "printer's mark".<br /><br />To date, if we can consider this survey as being representative, the Printer's Mark appears on only 14% of the Joe Doyle cards.....<br />or, on an average of 1 out of every 7 cards of Joe Doyle.<br /><br />If there are any more unreported Joe Doyle's out there.....please post them here ?<br /><br />TED Z

new T206 Joe Doyle variation found
 

T206 Joe Doyle Nevada variation found. I am going to quit my job on Monday!

nevada
 

unfortunately, yours is not the rare Nevada variation but instead the very common Naamloze Vennootschap--the Dutch variation for LLCs.

nice card, though

best,
barry

Thank you for clarifying. It's still a variation though, and I am rich...right?
