strange dot patterns scattered throughout

He should definitely see a Dr. regarding that nasty mole on his chin, as well the abnormally strong horizontal age lines he is seeing aross his face and neck...they are so deep that they cross into the background of where he is standing!

Also, I find the dead people standing behind him in the picture to be very disturbing.

It's the all about nothing thread. Every now and then they rear the ugly head....There are symptoms to this issue but Penicillin has been known to cure it, unlike some other forms of STD's.....

To try to get this thread back on topic...

It does look like the Old Mill back is not the normal "southern league" variety that we routinely see on the backs of the southern league cards. Where did you find this one? And were there other similar Old Mill backs?

Since you know the topic could you let the rest of us know? To me there was no question and there is a collector grade T206 Southern Leaguer picture....Enquiring minds want to know...

Hey there, Leon...

Most of our white border tobacco cards that depict southern league players are Old Mill brand cards, or Piedmont. A few have a Hindu back.

Old Mill southern league cards have that language about "Base Ball Series Selection from" and then it lists Texas, South Atlantic, and Southern Leagues. Are all Factory No. 25 2d Dist. Va.???

Anyway, to me, the card above has a back that looks different that what we normally see. Hence my previous response. This could be a previously un-cataloged back. A chicken flavored '96 Malibu with opposable thumbs that buys guys drinks in bars back at you!!!

Ok - now I'm super-confused. What back? I only see a front posted above. Is something wrong with my settings?

gnoman(part of a parallelogram that remains after a similar parallelogram has been taken away from one of its corners)

Joyce used the word along with paralysis and simony to describe the spiritual state of Ireland in the Dubliners.

O well, it is as good a quess as any.

I didn't see a back either, at first. But then after I contemplated '27', and the cereal killer possibilities, I walked around to the other side of the monitor, and there it was!!! The back of the card in this meaningless thread!

Here's my Greminger white border card. I thought that if I posted it, you guys could better see the subtle yet distinct back differences. Mine is an Old Mill, too, as luck would have it!

As I've learned from Leon, I've placed a quarter in proximity to the card, so its size can be discerned.

I don't get it. Are you selling that card for $0.25? Shouldn't this be in the B/S/T section?
