Default did the t206 strip sell?

Posted By: Pennsylvania Ted

I have not examined this strip in person. I have enlargened a picture of it and examined closely.
That said, I don't think that most will disagree with my contention that this strip is NOT the result
of a standard T206 production piece......for the following reasons:

(1)....The Wagner is in full color, while the other 4 cards are not (a printing impossibility on such an
intact 5-card strip)

(2)....There is a "gloss-like" appearance to the Wagner, that is not evident on the normal production
Wagner cards (and yes, I have seen several Wagner cards in person).

(3)....T206's are "WHITE BORDER" cards, why are the borders of the 5 cards on this strip "tan-like" in color ?

This really raises the question when was this strip actually printed. Recall, the T207 cards have very similar
"tan-like" colored borders.
