A few cards some of you may not have seen (horizontals for Zeenuts, e100, t209 and more)
 

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Figured I’d share scans of some cards that I’ve been lucky enough to acquire the past few weeks. Many of these don’t come up very often at all and due to their relative obscurity, some of you may not have seen one or more of these yet. I thought the horizontal poses were especially neat because none of these sets are really known for these and each of those three represent the lone horizontal pose within their respective sets. <br /><br />E99 Dillon – neat Gilliam-Squires overprint. SGC was harsh on the card though giving it a 10 when it would be a 40 without that stamp.<br /><br />E100 Cutshaw – This one caught people off-guard a few months ago when it appeared on BST. A lot of people didn’t realize either Bishop set even had a horizontal pose.<br /><br />E90-3 Payne blue variation – this card missed a color pass during it’s original print run. However unlike the other “blue” variations of e90-3s we’ve seen, this one came out a light purplish or lilac color<br /><br />T209 B.E. Thompson w/ B. E. Thompson back – kind of a neat card that remains one of the most prestigious cards in this large set. It also has a back that appeared on cards of Thompson and no other player in the set.<br /><br />T209 Presley/Pritchard – unique horizontal pose featuring two players. <br /><br />1912 Zeenut Baker – doesn’t get the hype the 1911 Halla gets but this is a nice pose too! I’ve seen fewer of this card than I have the Halla as well.<br /><br />I wouldn’t want to mention these cards and not mention the gracious board members who either traded or sold them to me. So thank you, Andy, Scott, Mike, Brian and Matt!<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1202862502.JPG"> <img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1202862517.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>That Cutshaw is awesome. I love the way the players images seem to float in the E100 set.

Posted By: <b>robert a</b><p>Great cards Brian,<br /><br />Especially that T209 Horizontal. Never seen that pose before and the condition is remarkable for any T209 card.<br /><br />Congrats. on the Thompson and the Blue Payne as well. Payne is hard without having a color variation. That's a keeper (unless you want to sell it to me).<br /><br />Nice!<br /><br />Rob

Posted By: <b>Steve</b><p>Really cool cards. Even as a dealer and collector for 20 years, I have never seen the horizontal Zeenut or T209 before!

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Thanks for the kind words guys. I didn't know a lot of these cards existed either until roughly the past few months. The Cutshaw was on BST a while back, I believe Zach told me about the horizontal t209's existance, and I only just recently found out about the Zeenut horizontal as well. <br /><br />It's too bad that, as neat as they are, so few sets ever even incorporated a single horizontal into their production runs. The sets that did, only managed to throw one in. 640 t210s...only one of them is a horizontal, for instance. Well over 2000 zeenuts in all and only four managed to have horizontal poses. I wonder if that threw off the printing process to have those in there? I suppose if cards were printed in neat sheets of 30 cards stacked in rows and columns or what have you, it might foul up the alignment a bit to have a horizontal sitting there on the end?

Posted By: <b>Jeff Shepherd</b><p>Awesome stuff Brian - look at that purple smudge on the front of the Dillon - you can just picture Gilliam Squire hand stamping a stack of E100's back in the day...
