Default T206 Gabby Street backrun

Hi guys. I've been working on this Street back run for about a year, and I want to show my progress thus far. I'm still missing the Red Hindu, Lenox and Piedmont 42 backs (I just missed out on a Pied 42 in the last REA auction, but someone with deep pockets really wanted that one ).

I am posting these scans as best I can. Sorry for the format, but I can't produce those nifty grids like Chris, Jaime and Wonka.


I know, I plan to crossover the Broadleaf 460 to SGC, I just haven't gotten around to it.

Thanks to Mike Sarno for the Drum.

Mike R. please post your back run in this thread when you return from vacation.

If anyone owns a Red Hindu, Lenox or Piedmont 42 and wishes to sell and /or trade, please contact me. I can offer you a similar back in trade if you require one for your own back run.

Thanks Pete. I plan to be in St. Paul next July (2015). Maybe we can get together and compare runs. Bring your Millers.

Sean, congrats on your progress so far. Did you ever finish your Merkle run?

Never get tired of seeing Jamie and Chris's back runs...sweet indeed!

Leon, Wonka and Jaime, thanks, and thank you for posting your runs Chris and Jaime.
By the way Jaime, I didn't realize that you got a blank back. Nice going.

Thanks Mike.
No, I never finished Merkle. I'm missing a Red Cross Type-1.
And I recently found out that there is a Coupon Type-3, Factory 8 overprint Merkle as well, so now I'm missing two Merkles.

Default Sean...

like I said....so glad you got that STREET YELLOW BROWN! I was starting to feel guilty owning mine!

since there are only three yellow/brown sc 460 fact #30's Streets known to exist!!! you and I own one...one more left out there that we know of...

as you know, that front back/ combo doesn't exist! in order to have a complete run, and bring you run to a different level, you need the error back if the player was available on that scrap sheet! that card is the the "cherry on top"

congrats my friend! I AM JEALOUS OF YOUR COLLECTION!


Plank Scrap, Tinker over print front sov, insane scrap, merkle run, street run, pirate cards WTF!.....I'm experiencing collection ENVY

please leave me in your will!!lol.....along with Leon...

Leon doesn't mind leaving the Matty proof or the Mullaney "rosetta stone of scrap" to me if the time comes.....

OH wait! I was dreaming.....

Hi guys. Thanks for the kind words. And Johnny, before you get jealous consider this:

Most of my best cards were acquired through sheer luck.
That Plank scrap? I was the underbidder on three other Planks, and finally decided that I was going all in on the next one. Lucky for me, it turned out to be a unique card.
The Merkle run? I lucked into that one when I picked up a Merkle Uzit on ebay, then followed up a year later by getting the Merkle Brown Lenox. It was only after stumbling into those two that I decided to go for the rest of the run. And the Merkle Piedmont 42? I bought the first Piedmont that I found on ebay. It was only after I received the card that I noticed that it was a Factory 42.
The Pirate? Okay, that was a great pick up. But I've had a few big f' ups as well. None of which I wish to describe now.
