Probably time to talk about all those Factory30's on...

[swarmee]

eBay last week. Which ones were previously unconfirmed backs? Who got them? Did the sales get scuttled by an unscrupulous backdoor deal?

[Leon]

I didn't see them. Did they get pulled before closing?

Al Burch fielding
Bill Bradley batting
Rube Manning pitching
George McQuillan batting
Heinie Wagner right shoulder

All with Sweet Cap 350-46 fact 30 and all were considered probable no prints when referencing t206resource.

Auction ended June 30th and all 5 finished around $190 each and were all in nice condition. None of the auctions had any description on origination but I think it's obvious the cards came from a stored away collection or were part of some "find".

Winning bidder was the same for all of them..... Net54er????

I'm pretty sure I have this card in an SGC 86....I will check tonight.

These are still unconfirmed. All of these cards are hand cut. My guess is they were scheduled to get the 42 overprint, but didn't for some reason, and were cut up carefully and stored together for a very long time. I was the under-bidder on the 5 big ones. If the winner wants to PM me, I have a couple more thoughts about them.

I recall another card posted in the last year or so that appeared to be a card that didn't get the 42 overprint. Need to look for that thread.

Very nice catch -- I missed these on eBay. Super interesting, but I think in the end they are scrap -- akin to the "yellow brown" 350/460 RP SC 460/30s scrap that were previously known.

Essentially I agree with Luke. These were likely intended to be SC 460/42 overstrikes but were discarded as a sheet before the overstrike and hand-cut.
