Default Can I see some rare T206 Sweet Cap backs

I feel like Sweet Caporal backs are the red-headed step child of t206 collecting. Piedmont has the Elite 11, Polar Bear has the Demmit/O’Hara cards, there are some really tough Sovereigns, and the other backs all have some well known rarities. I never hear much about rare Sweet Caps. Please share your rare sweet cap front-back combinations (and maybe a brief explanation of what makes them rare for unsophisticated collectors like me).

There are many Sweet Caporal combo's that are far tougher than most people would think here's one example

Sweeney SC350 factory 25.jpg


There are 3 Jeff Sweeney Drum's in the PSA pop report but there are only 2 SC350 factory 25's.

Cardtarget only lists 3 sales of this combo since 2009 and 2 of the 3 sales are the same card that sold twice.

Total graded Pop of this Herzog Boston w/ SC 460 Factory 25 is 5. I guess I'd consider that rare for the Sweet Caporal back.

Here are a couple tough ones. The Lake is tough to find with the factory 25 and the Lajoie was supposed to get the factory 42 overprint. It is one of the group of cards designated as ‘no prints’. It is thought that a sheet or two were taken from the printer before the factory overprint was applied. Then they were later hand cut (hence the Authentic grade). Other (more knowledgeable than myself) collectors can weigh in on this.

Not as pretty as the Lajoie shown, but definitely my Doyle missing its factory 42 overprint really reveals its hand cut (or hand destroyed) nature.
