Reprising the T206 "Elite 12"......show them, if you have any of them

[tedzan]

Back in September 2007, I started a T206 survey tracking T206's in the 150/350 series with rare PIEDMONT 350 backs. Ha ! Who would think that a PIEDMONT 350 back could be "rare" ?
Well guys, the Monster is always full of surprises.
See this thread......http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=87180

These 150/350 subjects with PIEDMONT 150 backs are not tough to find (except for the Lundgren-Cubs card). But, with PIEDMONT 350 backs these 12 guys are extremely tough to find.

The Elite 12 are depicted here......

Originally, we narrowed down these special T206's to eight 150/350 series subjects (hence the "Elite 8")....Dahlen, Ewing, Ganley, Tom Jones, Karger, Lindaman, Lundgren and Mullin.
More recently, Scot Reader's vast T206 survey revealed an additional 3 subjects with the rare PIEDMONT 350 & EPDG backs (Schaefer, Al Shaw, and Spencer). The 12th subject in this
group is very unique.....a Schulte with a PIEDMONT 350 back was discovered several years ago and is the only such card known. No EPDG card of this Schulte has yet to be discovered
which raises some doubt as to whether this card was actually issued, or is just a "scrap" card.

Needless to say, this group of cards (PIEDMONT 350 and, or EPDG) sell for considerably more $$$$ than the other T-brand backs associated with these twelve T206 subjects.

I'll follow up this post with some actual numbers associated to these Elite 12 cards.
