Hi Dez,
Sorry, I don't. I was more of a Baseball Collector at the time (when I had the copy of the ACC) which is why I remember the T-206 specifically and no he did not make a distinction between high #'s & low #'s (Not even for Nagurski) for National Chicle's. The only other card that I remember him specifically singling out was the 1933(4) Goudey Lajoie. I think that that was like $5.00.

For some reason I vaguely recall the 1935 National Chicle's being listed as just something like this:

311...Football....(36)................Price (Which I don't specifically recall but I think it was a few cents)
311-2.....Football Photos....6"x8"...(17).........Price

Jeff,
You're probably right. He may not have seen the wrapper.

I give J. Burdick a ton of respect, as he's the father of our hobby (along w/ Sy Berger, Woody Gelman & Lionel Carter). He organized & cataloged a ton of cards without a whole lot to go on. I guess I may have been in error in attributing the title we now use to him specifically. I just thought that going forward maybe we should recognize the set for what is supposed to have been called (as issued).
