Posted By: <b>david</b><p>i am not certain i would call this card 'the king' of overprints. the laxative ad back overprint currently on ebay is a much more appealing overprint then this card in my opinion. i also think the card went for more the 2x what it should have.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>To me the laxative overprint T206 back looks somewhat washed out..Still a great looking card but not quite the other one...The card last night was the coolest looking one I have ever seen. If I was going to own just one of them it would have been the one with the Young on back last night...It looks like there were 2-3 bidders over 8k so not sure about 4-5k being the value. It certainly sold higher in a fairly open, maybe even slightly tainted, auction..The laxative one will probably pick up some steam due to that price......all just my opinion.....regards

Posted By: <b>MVSNYC</b><p>i'm with Leon here...<br /><br />the laxative overprint is really cool looking, but with all due respect, the fact that the overprint is unrelated to T206, might hold the value down on it...if it were just a Hindu back (for example) on top of a Piedmont back it would sell for multiples of what the laxative will sell for, IMO.<br /><br /> <br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p><br />I know Tom kind of brought to attention his auction on his card here. But I think in the best interest of the seller of the laxative overprint, shouldn't this NOT be discussed while that auction is still live? Especially the downplaying of his card? Unless I missed something, that seller has not made anymore commnets on his card since it went on ebay.

Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I think talking about the cards usually drives the value up due to attention. This laxative one has lots of bidders and is neat.....I don't think it's so wrong to say if you like that one or the other better.....This is a chat board....but I do understand your concern too and it has some merit..BTW, the seller of the laxative one is a very nice gentleman......best regards

Posted By: <b>David R</b><p>Hey guys,<br /><br />No problem talking about my laxative ad back that's on eBay. It's not a private auction, it has lots of bidders, and I did disclose the reserve. No secrets. It's all in the open and as far as I am concerned people are free to say what they want about it. I am not really one for pumping my own auctions or my collection so I have not posted since I listed it but I don't mind if others want to talk about it -- good or bad. Any exposure is probably good, but it probably doesn't matter much either way. Leon, thanks for the kind words.<br /><br />David R<br /><br />

Posted By: <b>MVSNYC</b><p>David- you know i like your laxative overprint a lot (as you know, we spoke a few times about it)...just to clarify, the point was trying to make, was that IF it had another brand as an overstrike instead, it would command a lot more...hope you do well on it!<br /><br />be well,<br />MS

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Admittedly the laxative ad is not related to the typical T206 back advertising...but it is a dramatic and colorful overprint, and with this area of collecting eye appeal is very important.

Posted By: <b>david</b><p>the fact that the laxative ad is not related to anything t206 is what makes it such an appealing card in my opinion. i would think type collectors would be driving the price on a card like this.

Posted By: <b>Dave F</b><p>David-<br /><br />I don't disagree. I think the buyer of the card (who is a board member) got a pretty good deal on that card. <br /><br /><br />Dave

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>...T206 would have been more appealing to me if it were the only one of its kind. Sloate sold a similar one last year.<br /><br /><br><br>_ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ _ <br /><br />Visit <a href="http://www.t206collector.com" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206collector.com</a> for signed deadball card galleries, articles and more!

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>That's correct, I did have one in 2007 and it sold for a little more than 1K.
