T206 GhostBusters

[Blunder19]

Hunting for T206 ghost images with players on the BACK is no easy feat.
I felt very lucky to pick this example up

Since there is hardly any information on known examples (2 Chances, 2 Weimers, 1 Starr, 1 Gilbert, 1 Cy Young, 1 Becker) I was wondering if anyone can help add to that number of known examples with ones they may have in their collection.

Also any idea on how these images on the backs got there? I know you t206 ghostbusters like to keep to yourselves.. but any info on these cards is much appreciated..

Thanks
Jamie

You did it!....sweet card Great addition, just wish it was in mine
My theory a sheet or two erronously printed first step negatively on backs, fronts were printed, then finished with the back ads....iggy and a few other might take a stab, but these are some of the more dramatic errors that weren't printers scrap and actually made it to packs, 150 series most affected due to the learning curve i assume....either way, they are super cool cards, and as you know, super super rare!! and in there own special catagory, a "t206 of it's own" if you will....only a few examples of the players are known to exist, and these are some of the coolest t206 s around Your done Jamie, the monster has you by the sxxk!!LOL
here's my weimer , THanks Dan A.!!

They're "offset transfers" With ink that isn't quite dry and enough pressure the wet ink on the front will transfer to the back whatever is on top of it.

I used to be pretty impressed with them, and they're still impressive, but I had a 100+ year old item printed in black on a similar cardstock to T206s transfer to another item while in the mail between the UK and US. I've learned a bit more about the formulation of inks back then, especially black.

It's possible these and the Tolstoi transfers didn't happen during production.

Are they all P150? if they are that would be pretty convincing that it was during production.

Jamie, You didn't want the Gilbert for 2K then?.. Ok, I'll store it back in the safe.

Nice Chance btw

I've got another of the P150s:

It is faint (let's say "spookier"), but there is a weak cylindrical transfer ghost on Bradley too.
