Apparently some were saved and handed down, and found their way into the hobby. Luckily for us.
Sean: Your post answers a multitude of questions I have had regarding the T206 set, and I certainly bow to this board's expertise on "The Monster."

I have wondered why T206 scrap cards are not considered mis-prints, as per cards that are missing a color, etc. In fact, in the SGC graded cards on this thread, one sees "Color Variation"...so I assume that applies to both scrap and mis-prints (or missing color) cards?

I also wondered what constitutes a T206 scrap card; now I know from your post, and I also understand the rarity of such cards now (before I thought they were just printer errors with several out there....).

Thanks for the education! Always learning, which is greatness!
