Show us your "unique" (1 of 1) T206 cards.
To date....this Herzog and this McGraw are unique, as they are the only the UZIT cards of these two subjects (according to the Pop Reports).
I traded for the Herzog with my friend in North Carolina in 2010. And, I recently acquired an old T206 collection which included this McGraw. Both cards were raw, originally. Recently, I sold the Herzog to David Hall. Like Kenny Rogers used to sing about cards: "there is a time to hold them, and a time to fold them". So, let's how many more unique T206's are out there in Net54land....so why not show us your's ? http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...ZITxSGC30x.jpg . http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...loveUZITxb.jpg http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...erzogSGC45.jpg . http://i603.photobucket.com/albums/z...ogUZITx50b.jpg TED Z . |

This Broad Leaf 350 Quinn is listed on T206resource as "not confirmed", and neither PSA nor SGC list any in their pop report.

Did not know there was a such thing as an Eddie Collins proof. That is wild.
I assume this is a one of one that resides in Oberman's collection? If it got into the public forum or auction, what kind of price would it fetch? |

I think the Collins Proof is a $250K+ card at this point.
Unfortunately for me and the gazillion other 206 collectors who covet it. |

I'm pretty sure it was me who first confirmed the existence of Broad Leaf 350 Quinn to you. See post #37 of the thread you linked to, dated 7-23-2015, in which I told you about my Quinn and said that it "knocks another one off the unconfirmed list". Before that, you had Quinn as unconfirmed, as I recall. |
Hey David
You got me on that one. It's been a long day for me, it's time to hit then sack. Thanks guy, TED Z . |

Signed T206 Cards
I only get to the 1-of-1 world through the magic of autographs. I have never seen or even heard about another one of any of these:

Hey Glenn I don't quite understand your comment....please explain ? ? TED Z |
Certainly. In the original post you said you were basing the determination of uniqueness on the numbers in "the Pop Reports." Then David said "neither PSA nor SGC list any [BL 350 Quinns] in their pop report." Thus, he owns 1 of a card which, according to the method you cited, has a population of zero. That's all.
|
Glenn
Perhaps, I was not clear in my original post here. Or, you may be misconstruing the meaning the word "unique" as I have applied it here. I'm not basing the "uniqueness" of a given T206 on Pop report data. I simply refer to the Pop report data as possible supporting evidence. The basis for me saying a certain T206 is unique is strictly based my 37 years of experience collecting T206's. For example....I have never before seen the McGraw and Herzog with UZIT backs. Furthermore, I have contacted many veteran T206 collectors, who told me that they have not either. Therefore, in my opinion it's fair to conclude that these two T206's are unique (at this point in time). Sure, 2nd's (or 3rd's) of these guys may eventually surface. But, as of March 10, 2017 these two T206's remain unique. TED Z . |

The Herzog / UZIT in REA that you are referring to was my card. I offered it to David Hall at the 2013 National. I gave him a price, but he suggested that I consign it to REA in order to see what market value it would rise to. He won this card; and, of course he had it graded by PSA. I hope this information "de-confuses" you. http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...erzogSGC45.jpg . http://i603.photobucket.com/albums/z...ogUZITx50b.jpg TED Z . |
Quote:
Thanks Ted. Your explanation definitely clears my confusion. My mistake. I just didn't connect the dots that recently selling it to David Hall was the same thing as consigning it to an auction house in 2013. Makes perfect sense since David Hall was the one who bought it at auction. GREAT CARD!!!!!!! |
Thanks Ronnie
I have sold directly to David quite a number of rare T206's prior to (and after) this Herzog card. However, he thought it would be mutually fair to both of us for him to bid on it in an Auction situation. And, that was fine with me, since I knew he would win the card, anyhow. TED Z . |
Back long before grading companies broke out different T206 tobacco company reverses, and because I no longer have the card, so no scan possible, I held a PSA 7 Griffith batting with a Drum reverse, so sweet it breaks my heart to even think about it. For all I know, David Hall has it in his private vault.

The most unique and least loved T206 card I have. I got it with a raw set of 175 cards and while organizing the lot I found out it is currently a onefer. Now I have a hard time getting rid of it. "Make me an offer I can't refuse." (Though I will trade for just one of those awesome T206 signatures).

This AB 460 Jennings card was a unique T206 when I acquired it years ago. It was graded SGC A. Recently, I have seen one more.
I am displaying the 2 scans here of the same card. A couple of years ago, I cracked it open and submitted it to SGC. This time SGC graded it an SGC 60. Check out SGC's Pop report, you will see two cards listed for this AB 460 Jennings....a SGC A and a SGC 60. They are one-in-the-same card. http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...sHandx50_1.jpghttp://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...gsHand50xb.jpghttp://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...ningsSGC60.jpg TED Z . |

David Hall called me after the REA auction to tell me that he had won the Herzog / UZIT graded, and that PSA graded it a 1/2 point lower than SGC.
As most of us know, David is part owner of the PSA outfit and has all his T206 cards PSA graded. So, I'm not sure what you are implying ? It appears as if you are questioning my statement in post #31. If so, I have no further comment. Post #31 Quote:

Pat You may be correct in that observation. I'm not much of a fan of the card grading system. I think that some times it can be quite arbitrary. For example, I refer to the AB 460 Jennings card which I posted. First graded "Authentic", subsequently graded SGC 60. Hey, I'm not complaining. I like the Ex grade (which, in my opinion this card should have been graded initially). http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...sHandx50_1.jpghttp://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...gsHand50xb.jpghttp://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...ningsSGC60.jpg TED Z . |

This T206 was ungraded for a long time; and, during that period it was unique. In recent years I had it graded.
But, it's no longer 1 of 1. Now there is another Elberfeld / DRUM graded (PSA 3). http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...erfeldDRUM.jpg . http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...ldDRUMx25b.jpg TED Z . |
While we are on the subject of DRUM cards, I think my Frank Delehanty DRUM may be a unique T206 card.
I'm curious if anyone else on this forum has seen (or has) another one ? A-B-C-D connection of my favorite T206 subject in the 350-only series. http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...ntyABCDx50.jpg .http://photos.imageevent.com/tedzan7...tyABCDx50b.jpg TED Z . |

Thanks, Eric
A Net54 "reader" emailed me regarding SGC's Pop report indicating a Frank Delehanty DRUM card listed SGC A. I informed him that I think that is my card. Circa 2007, I acquired this Delehanty. It was in an SGC A plastic. And, I cracked it out of the plastic and placed it in high quality mylar. My experience in tracking DRUM cards indicates that quite a number of the T206 Minor Leaguers from the 350-only series appear to be 1 of 1 cards. So, it would not surprise me if another Frank Delehanty / DRUM never shows up. TED Z . |

That's quite a statement....regarding your preference for the Collins (with bat) card over the Wagner card ! Do you have any theory's why American Litho printed him, but withheld him ? TED Z . |

I suppose in theory you can always locate and purchase another Wagner if you had enough funds.
There are only a few cosmological events that could occur for you to get a shot at the Collins proof. |

Your theories are as good (probably better) than mine about the great enigma Collins (With Bat) proof. I tend to think that American Tobacco didn't get his written authorization back by the deadline in winter/spring 1909 and, since he was an emerging star and a Columbia grad (i.e. a smart guy), decided to remove him from printing. Maybe he even explicitly objected or threatened them with a lawsuit -- can you imagine if he did that and someone produced the letter 108 years later? Now that would be big! I have no strong evidence that delayed (or lack of) authorization was the reason Collins (With Bat) wasn't printed. But consider the portraits in the 350-only series. The Hall of Famers are basically Eddie Collins, minor leaguers (Beckley and Jimmy Collins) and Rube Marquard (who didn't emerge as a star until 1911). Makes no sense that Eddie Collins would be printed as a 350-only portrait unless there was some sort of unusual delay. My best guess is that Collins (With Bat) and Collins (Portrait, Philadelphia) were both supposed to be 150/350 releases, but ATC was forced to delay and mothballed the With Bat version entirely. Scot EDITED TO ADD: For those who are unaware, the American Tobacco Company sought written permission from the players who it wished to include in the set we now (thanks to Jefferson Burdick) call T206: http://www.t206museum.com/page/periodical_96.html |
Collins Proof
I do remember the T206 Collins Proof was found at the same time as 8 or so Southern Leaguers (also un-issued). He was the only major league player. I don't have a better explanation for it not appearing , perhaps the permission letter theory is as good as any. I believe R.L. bought the card for the princely sum of $18,, oh how the times have changed,,,
|
What we have to remember, proofs were not only made to make sure colors and registration were correct, but furthermore, it was a final approval stage for production. Just a thought here, there might've been a bunch of designs that were scraped because they weren't visually appealing. Not saying the Collins is ugly, but the pose and his stance are a little awkward, IMO. Not a card I'd take over a Wagner. ;)
