T206 Howell's crotch area?!?!
 

I was working on a run of HARRY HOWELL (Standing) today and noticed something written in his crotch area!

Does anybody have a better example where the numbers/letters can be deciphered?

Included scan:

Yeah, I believe it says "Quit looking at my crotch. Collect Boston Garters if that is your cup of tea."

I think its sandscrit.

These T206 errors are getting out of hand :D

JD...my bad.

Seriously though, when you get some time to enlarge that area, there's a bunch of junk going on there :)

All of the Howell (Standing) seem to have that writing.

My worse. It's "hard" to tell. Maybe he's just happy to see us!:)

He used to wear advertising on his pants.

It says Smoke Honest Long

I agree. Next we'll have a Howell Missing Crotch for sale on ebay. ;)

Hopefully this error was never in your hands :rolleyes:

Way to keep your eye on the balls.

Craig, they look fine to me, but I'm not a urologist.

One man's junk...
 

Man, I hadn't noticed before, but I think I will be checking out Howell's junk from here on out.

The Rosetta Stones of T206.

I am gonna go with pareidolia. The same illusion that makes people think there is a rat on mars, or the Virgin Mary on a piece of toast.

This is what I love about the forum. I learn a new word every day.

There's a rat on Mars? Cool!

I learned it last week studying NASA's pictures of a rat on Mars. Just Google "Mars Rat" and you'll see it.

Thanks for the head's up Google. That was great. Like an intraplanetary Rorschach test.

Speaking of pareidolia......is psa gonna start slabbing these? (sure looks like a young J. O. to me!)

Isn't that the guy with the Nun's Wagner?:D

I see Moses Cobb in that bell.:rolleyes:

I think that it's just "Peedmont" bleeding through from the back...:D

104 years and no one else ever looked this closely at Howell's privates.

Way to go, Craig!

I can just imagine a distant relative of Harry Howell trying to find information on him and they stumble upon us talking about his family tree. Thanks ancestry.com!

Wow!!! John Lennon on a pan! :D

Way too funny!

Greg Nazareth : Thanks that was one of the best laughs I've had in a while.

"Runscott: 104 years and no one else ever looked this closely at Howell's privates. Way to go, Craig!"

Well, being a Master Set builder, I seem to really look cards over well noticing the smallest details. I'm doing the same with the recent DRUM cards I acquired. :)

Guy clearly had a bad case of blue balls. My suggestion would be to go to a house of ill repute and get some immediately. Obvious that the wife or girlfriend was not putting out. LOL
