Joe D.I just got back with my time machine and have some answers....
...I can say for sure that the cobb / cobb back was part of the T206 issue... I sat in on the board meeting and I saw Ty Cobb say - "I am too important to be on just one side of the card." Everyone agreed.
...They printed just as many Plank cards as any other T206 - but, Plank's grandpa horded them all and put them in his attic - next to his set of 'Colonial Trash Can Kids' cards.
...Doyle Natl was never printed that way - just fancy white-out experimentation done in the 1980s.
...They really had trouble spelling Magie / Magee. There is actually a Magoo version out there as well. I will be sure to look for this one.
Oh, before I headed back I grabbed a stack of T206 Wagners so that we could each have one.
