Default T206 Question (MastroNet)

Posted By: T206Collector

http://www.mastronet.com/index.cfm?action=DisplayContent&ContentName=Lot%20Information&LotIndex=54722&CurrentRow=1

This partial set of 521 cards sold for $37,000. I have two questions --

(1) The last line in the description says 22% of the collection are trimmed. That's 115 trimmed cards. Anyone else find that very unusual? If you were trying to put together a collection, it would actually be pretty hard to find that many loose T206 cards trimmed. Does anyone else think that would throw a huge question mark over the highly graded cards in the collection?

And...

(2) They say there are 521 "missing only Doyle/NY NL, Magie, Plank and Wagner for completion." Well, wouldn't that make 520? You only get 525 cards if you count Cobb with Cobb Advert on reverse, right?

I think my set is complete without Doyle/NY NL, Magie, Plank and Wagner but at only 520. Which one am I missing/or has MastroNet miscounted?
