Default SURVEY: T206 Joe Doyle N.Y (missing partial Y & period) - - - 4th variation
Posted By: NYHighlanderFan

I laughed when people started claiming that Sharpe had a variation spelled "Shappe"...because the bottom right part of his "R" was missing and not spelled with a "P" doesn't make this card another Magee/Magie. Now this Doyle topic has pushed it over the edge.

I bet an entire set can be put together with t206 cards scattered throughout the world with glimpses of missing ink somewhere in their names. When I first started collecting this set, the no B Sweeney was considered the 524th card...then it was considered just a printing error and the set was dropped back to 523...what's next, saying the set now has 527 cards?
