Frank Arellanes, Herbie Moran and Fred Mitchell were neighbors!
I am truly fascinated with T206 sheet layouts. I'll never know the exact composition of a sheet or even the number of cards, but there are absolutely hidden clues to the set out there. Little pieces... little pieces that when put together start to reveal something.
I recently picked up this Herbie Moran ghost (thanks Adam). Based on the scans, I was pretty sure I could make out Herbie's (left) neighbor. Once I had the card in hand, I was able to match it up with Fred Mitchell: http://www.collectorfocus.com/images.../mitchell-fredhttp://www.collectorfocus.com/images...6/moran-herbie I think that's really cool. But that's not it. This Herbie Moran is a Piedmont 350... there's another really interesting Herbie Moran Piedmont 350. A Moran two-namer with Frank Arellanes on top: http://i.imgur.com/9mPGT.jpg So, assuming that the sheet layouts for these guys didn't change during the Piedmont 350 run (which may be a leap), we now have three known neighbors: http://www.collectorfocus.com/images...7/moran-herbie |
Very cool Erick, this is the stuff we need to track along with the back plate scratches and print groups.

Good research Erick!
I recently picked up a ghost myself and hopefully someday soon when I get some time will try to figure out who the neighbor is. Huge thanks to Mike P. for putting the ghost in my PC! Jantz |
