Default Craig....

thanks my friend! don't be so modest ....... you are one of the most knowledgeable t206 collector/researchers we have! THANK GOD you are back to posting.....your posts were missed very much by me and everyone else.....
scot is an animal when it comes to T206....another mentor of mine

my research indicated about a 50/50 split in the "light" vs" "dark" or , as I call them, piedy 42 baby blue and piedmont "blue" or the darker blue ones .....at first, when I collected them, I thought they were exlusively printed in the "baby" blue and that how I would spot them "in the wild" at first glance on ebay.....then after a while, I noticed the "dark" blue ones.....I thought they were "rarer" than the baby blues.....after many years of collecting, I noticed it was almost split 50/50 in the distribution of light vs. dark....other collectors also contributed....was pretty neat to "discover" the differentiation....

subjects, I noticed, where printed mostly in both......no "exclusive" players attached to either a dark or light blue piedy 42




are you going to the national?? would love to meet up with you....i'll be brining the "circus"....I want you to see so bad! please email me when you get a chance.....id love to chat........very excited to have you back posting....
