Default T206 350 Series checklist & their backs....any questions ?

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

With the exception of the Simon Nicholls (bat) card, the American Beauty 350 back with FRAME
is possible on the remaining 213 cards in this series.

The 55 T206 cards in the 350/460 Series were printed with the American Beauty 350 (No FRAME)
back. This Nicholls card was intended for the 350/460 Series; therefore, this card exists with the
No FRAME back. However, his Major League career ended April 25th 1910 when he was traded to
Cleveland. And, refused to play there. He went back to his farm in Maryland and then continued
his BB career with Baltimore playing for Jack Dunn (Mgr.).



Therefore, having been designed for the 350/460 series, the Nicholls card was never extended
into the 460 series. So, since Nicholls is not found with a 460 back, this card has been classified
as a 350 Series card.

Thanks for an excellent question.....I hope I have made this exception clear.
