Show Us (if there are any) T206 Scraps!!: That are non Sweet Cap Or Piedmont

[mrvster]

Hello All,

As you know I am Obsessed with T206 Printer Scrap's.....The most common are of the Sweet Cap and Pied variety due to probabilities, but very rare are the Scrap of Hindu, Carolina, and even Sovereign, ect, ect!.....some must exist or a tucked away and guarded tightly

I know one fellow collector who owns a Russ Ford with magenta ghost , hand-cut Scrap Tolstoi, which Id love to purchase, but I understand he also loves it....and is willing to part id love to have a shot at it..

So, please, if you have any scans or own a "non common" T206 Scrap with a rarer Back, please SHOW US...

I'm sure there are a few, but I must warn you, I get faint if I see some, and I know I will want

[T206.org]

Your passion is contagious, Johnny - I dig it, man! Hope you're doing well.

WOW, that's sounds crazy.

[z28jd]

Johnny, I have the Willis, Polar Bear back that we can't figure out if it is just worn out or hand cut(or both I guess). It's missing 2-3 color passes, so that's a start

[Leon]

well, it is somewhat memorable and has been shown a million times but it fits the bill, I think...It does have Piedy but a few more too...

Wow, that is crazy cool! Is that the ghost of Cy Young or Matty haunting that back?

[Sean]

That is Cy Young on the back. Or maybe that is a Cy Young card with a Mullaney front.

[Sean]

Sorry Johhny, I checked my cards: I have three scraps (four if you count Plank), but they all have a Sweet Caporal back.

There are, as you know a handful of known OM SL scraps and one OM scrap.

Quality control must have been much tighter with the later runs.

Or printed in much lesser quantity leaving less errors to be had.

For Johnny...and because it's St. Patty's Day week...

Thanks for sharing this again...great card.

[mrvster]

TRAE!!

GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU! you have become a T206 Icon! doing great, n you?????????

THERE IT IS!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
please , Jamie, consider me one day

WHAT A CARD!

Leon,
You know you have to leave that to me one day and the Matty Proof, prob 2 of my fav(beside wagz and Seans Plank)
I never get sick of these, never!
I have an om upside down scrap like Chris, btw, Chris's Willets is INSANE~!
I have a sov Scrap....
but I have never seen a hindu scrap, ab, lenox, cb, cycle, bl, epdg, polar bear(Except Mayb Johnny's)...I have a "tweener" EPDG....

but i'm dying to see if even ONE exists with a "tufer" back...

Chris, your hypothesis is right, tightet control, plus the probabilities alone aren't there

[Sean]

Leon what does Johhny mean when he says "leave it to me " some day? Is he just assuming that he will outlive you? Or does he know something that we don't about the state of your health?
Just kidding, and I wish you a full recovey.

[cfc1909]

I guess technically these browns are scrap

[mrvster]

Leon will outlive all of us! I love the multi strike and his Matty Proof

Mr. Rivera, Brown OM are my weakness.....your card is s imply amazing! One of my all time favorites!

[mrvster]

A Hindu?? A CB?? Cycle ??AB??? EPDG?? in the form of Printer scrap??

Has anyone even seen one over the years??
I never have and I am on a quest

[Craig M]

I would like to push this thread to the top as I also would like to see a Hindu or EPDG scrap.

Anybody have one to share?

[mrvster]

these type of scrap I guess don't exist

can they be extinct or just simply don't exist??

I've been trying to find a rare back scrap for years.....


ANYONE HELP

[z28jd]

Well here is the Willis Polar Bear I have(mentioned above), with another Polar Bear back next to it, also mine. Just to see the color comparisons on the two cards. I included a scan of the card in the holder too. It is graded SGC10 but it looks like it could be hand cut to me, or it could just be worn. I don't know if it qualifies as scrap, I just know it's different, so I make fun of it

[GregZakwin]

Picked up from Luke Lyon earlier this year (thanks man!)

[Luke]

Thank you Greg!

Here are a couple others. You've probably seen the Graham, but the Duffy may be a new one to you. Debatable whether it should be called scrap or just an oddity. It appears factory-cut, although SGC gave it an A for some reason:

[mrvster]

most of the "caption shifts" like you duffy I believe were factory issued .....only a few exist that I have seen:

newt randall, Donnie bush, and a warhop (that was right on the line), and a del howard.....

I believe the brown layer was applied to the caption and the t206 image..... when the brown layer gets "jumped " or " skipped" it creates a "double vision" effect ....the image shifts and the caption" jumps" into the image field....


this creates a weird ass image on the players and jumps the caption "up"

(ps- I usually use " " to put my terms I create because I'm not 100 % correct on any of the terms I label these errors/scraps as......some nick names stick as "caption shift".....I wasn't sure how to assign these types of errors, so I kinda created my own error terminology......)


I love the graham!


GREAT CARDS LUKE...


LOVE YOUR TASTE

[RedsFan1941]

that hugh duffy is incredible

[MVSNYC]

Hi Johnny- as you know, we've both owned a bunch of non-Pied/SC scraps...

[mrvster]

that is a beautiful collage

unfortunately, the freak and scrap prices are soft due to the fact of about 20 or more advanced collectors and t206 experts have exited the hobby....they appreciated the uniqueness and rarity of them....they were driving up the prices....they all kind of exited over the past 3 years or so.....simple supply vs demand

scraps freaks will only rebound as more advanced collectors enter the market or seek out that unique "one of a kind " type of 206...

time will tell...

what always seems to hold true in regard to scraps and freaks and pricing=

#1 subject matter

#2 the more "dramatic" ones command higher prices

[mrvster]

I love this card

magenta image of T 68 men of history set ....Hernando Cortes...

paging mr summers for the over lay magic

[MVSNYC]

Hmm, looks like my bracelet in the reflection...

You still own it, Johnny?

[mrvster]

yes my friend
