Rare McBride blue flame variation (for Pete)
 

I came across these McBrides that have what looks like a blue flame on
his hip. I know Pete likes to know about any new T206 variations so I
wanted to post scans of these.

Pat....
 

great EYE:);)

Hadn't noticed that one before. Thanks for sharing.

very kind of you to share...maybe he had a pen in his pocket that exploded?

One more for you Pat.

Ah...
 

The famous McBride "Liar, Liar, pants on fire" variation. Ranks up there with the '41 Play Ball Taft "booger" variation in terms of toughness. Price will surely triple.

Does anyone really know a good price or pop on these?

There's really no premium on them or at least I've never seen them sell for a premium.

I did some research on the pop on them a few years ago and I found 11 out of
287 with the blue mark so about 1 out of 26 McBrides had it.

here's the data I had back then
