Posted By: <b>matt</b><p>I saw this up for auction on ebay. The HE in Hemphill's name is partially missing.<br /><br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/1909-11-T206-CHARLIE-HEMPHILL-PSA-8-MR-X-COLLECTION_W0QQitemZ5236582627QQcategoryZ31718QQrd Z1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_blank">hemphill auction</a> <br /><br />I also noticed this one on the t206 museum website.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.t206museum.com/page/set_h.html" target="_blank">t206 museum hemphill</a> <br /><br />My question is...since there are 2 or more of these cards with the same printing flaw, does that make it a valuable variation like some of the other printing flaw cards such as Nodgrass, Sharpe, Murray, etc?

Posted By: <b>john/z28jd</b><p>It shouldnt be any different than the other printing flaws but so far its not got the recognition the others have.I know someone who has 2 other examples of the Hemphill,and another person with 1 example so theres at least 5 that i know of just like that.<br /><br />I have another t206 card which also isnt a recognized printing error but is graded and obviously missing full letters from a printing flaw.Basically i dont know why some are recognized and others arent.Common sense would usually say id rather have a Hall of Famer missing 2 letters rather than a common missing one(snodgrass,mitchell) or even partial one(shappe/sharpe) but the card usually has to be recognized by someone significant before any puts any value on it.<br /><br />Same can be said for Hemphill.If you can find a lower grade example before its a well-known variation you can either make some good money off it or hold onto a valuable error most people normally wouldnt be able to get.<br /><br />
