One T206 guy with an American Beauty 350 (no frame) back, that you wont find with an American Beauty 460 back, is
Simon Nichols (with bat). Although, this card is classified as a 350-only subject, it was actually intended as a 350/460
candidate. My theory is.....that American Lithographic did not extend this card into the 460 series since Nichols retired
from the major leagues just prior to the release of the 460 series cards.
If someone here has an alternative explanation for this T206 front/back anomaly, please present it ?
Recall that we have confirmed 73 cards with the AB 460 backs....so, when you get a chance, check-out this wantlist
and see if you have any of those cards in your T206 collection.
