Posted By: <b>Shemp</b><p>I recently saw a card of Zach Wheat at a local antique store. I only know T206 so maybe someone can help me with this: It has a blank back, shows him fielding, has a yellowish/orange backgorund. The dealer put "1918" on it, but I cant find any sets from that year that meet this description. Any thought? He wants 30 bucks for it. Thanks.<br />Shemp

Posted By: <b>Ben</b><p>I can't say your description rings a bell, but my guess would be a strip issue of some sort - w514 or w515 perhaps?

Posted By: <b>brian p</b><p>Can't pin it down, but sounds like a strip card, probably either a W519,520,521 or 522 (not near a guide book to see if Wheat is in all of these).<br /><br />Brian

Posted By: <b>Robert A</b><p>smaller...and hand cut?<br />I would agree with ben and say that it is probably a strip card.<br />I couldn't say whether or not it is worth the price because I don't know anything about strip cards.<br />Although, when I see them offered, they are usually inexpensive so keep that in mind.

Posted By: <b>Shemp</b><p>Well, this card is far from mint, so I will save my money for a nice T206 instead..that will teach me to stray! Thanks for all the help!
