Expert T206 detectives: Can you help me decipher what's on this Steinfeldt portrait?
I have been off and on in the hobby for quite some time - basically since I had kids. Now we have 3. But...I just resigned from my job to finally pursue music and think I might be coming back to the hobby for good now!
ANYWAY - the Steinfeldt/Overall portraits are probably my favorite T206 cards in the set in terms of their aesthetic appeal - but what is on this Steinfeldt portrait has long eluded me. Please feel free to post your own cards with things that have eluded you - the knowledge on this board is what intrigued me to the hobby in the first place. Notice the frame on the outside, the clear angled O, and what looks like a G underneath the S of CUBS. Also looks like the frame of a standard large S on bottom right of jersey, but none of those exist that I know of in the T206 group. Could just be a a mixed bag of marks, but I'm certain the ink is original, I've looked at it under 40x microscope. Possibly a wild goose chase, but I don't doubt the people here anymore...

I’m no expert, but I’d say that’s the ‘Q’ in Quality from a piedmont back that was stacked on top of this card. Maybe moisture or something transferred the ink from the other card onto the front of yours. Just my initial thought...

I have seen a bunch of WSTs, obviously Tolstoi has always been one that is consistently seen - you just don't see many Piedmonts. I needed a fresh pair of eyes haha, --- even though I knew it was a frame on the right, I was getting hung up on what looked like a big S, but it is very possible its the "bottom left" corner of the back of the piedmont frame. The Q absolutely makes sense...

My computer might be older than this card, so I couldn't do much. However, this looks spot on for a Piedmont back.

You guys are amazing, absolutely amazing, with card forensics. Who really and truly needs PSA or SGC or whatever? You guys know as much, or more, than they do.
