a rebacked Uzit for 300 is quite a deal. :)
thanks for sharing.

all the best,

would someone try to separate the two cards if they were to purchase this? I will certainly be following this auction, just to see if it sells.

Rebacked? Wow, why didn't I think of that? Now I can finally finish that Merkle back run. :eek:

Pretty darn certain it is a reproduction back, but according to the seller:
"someone glued the front and back together making this a legit rebacked T206 card"

It's not unknown to have a good side and a bad side of a card, so I have seen. Can't say for sure but the seller says he doesn't know.....which, he probably doesn't.

If you build it, they will come...

I dont think the seller knows but that card has a bad side and a terrible side .

They actually might both be good sides, but probably didn't both start out on the same card. :confused:

I don't know why someone would take an Uzit back and put it on a Hinchman. :confused:

I don't think that back is legit. Compare below (note the location of the factory number line):

Hinchman (Cleveland) is a 150/350 series subject that was issued in 1909..

The UZIT back (whether it's authentic or not) is a 460 series back issued in 1911.

Therefore, what we have here is an impossible front / back combo.

The value of this "Frankenstein" card is less than $1.00 (and, no more than that).


Incidently, I have a Ty Cobb (bat off shoulder) with the same phony UZIT back.

"Uzitstein". Sounds like an Edgar Winter cover band.

Erick....
 

Great comparison.....back is all wrong....at a quick first glance I can see where :confused: could happen....but 1000% not uzit........lettering thinner, location factory, letter shape, color, ect ect:)

fonts and type sizes are definitely different, it really helps when you get to compare a known example...
