Question on T206 Sheets

Posted By: Donald Johnson

I recently picked up an oversized T206 card of Rossman, Detroit. Previously, all the miscut T206's I had owned had the same player's name on the top. This card however had both Rossman's name on the bottom of the card and McBride, Washington on the top. What was the norm? Different players throughout the T206 sheets or the same player in a column or row? Anyway, any answers would be appreciated.

Hi Donald,
Nice pickup, most Miscut T206's have the same name at the top as they do at the bottom. Evidence suggest that the same pose was printed vertically while different poses appear on the horizontal. Most collectors believe that cards printed with different names at the top appear on cards where the registration or type set was off at the bottom of the sheet. I have a Carl Lundgren with Doolan at the top, and have seen at least 10-12 more poses over the years. Be well Brian

but it was quite interesting. A John McGraw, with Willie Keeler's name at the top. There isn't much interest in them, though. I sold it on ebay, in VG condition, and it only brought about $75.
