Well, someone typed 'F.S.' on the back of this one - who's to say it wasn't someone named 'F. Scott' ?

I had mine graded, and now resides in sgc holder, cause who knows in the future some f face might start rubber stamping some

The seller didn't know what it was and io was lucky to score it....i have heard there were quite a few with the epdg....i guess from the mid west when he was a teenager??

anyway....Let's See The REAL ONES

We should see some with " S F"


Your the man

I own one and have shown it before (and right now I don't have access to any of my scans). It's a Sweet Cap 350 Bill Lattimore and is graded SGC10. I wonder if enough of us that own one might not beseech SGC to consider adding the line "From the F. Scott Fitzgerald Collection" to the flip. There is enough documentation to prove the lineage of the cards, they are acknowledged to have once been the property of a young Fitzgerald, and while a few still occasionally turn up, I would think most have been accounted for. There must be some kind of test (black light?) to determine the age of the ink used to stamp the "F" on the cards, which would preclude forgeries and make it easy enough on SGC to determine if the card was part of Scott's collection and legitimately deserves the ID line I mentioned above. If we can put the names of famous card collectors who once owned the cards on the flips, why not the name of a famous novelist who can be a proven past owner as well?

Maybe if we all identify each other as owning one of the cards, we can ask SGC, as a group to consider this. I never intend to sell the card; the flip would be for my own joy and happiness. What do you say? Should we give it a try.

RAY!

I love that Idea!! absolutely agree.....i just had mine graded at sgc......they don't label them as such yet, but i was hoping by some slim chance they would.....my card is a blazer!!!i love it!! i missed a few in the past and when i scored the ewing was really cool....nice clear stamp also..

I would say f scotty definetly would be great to see on the flip.ABSOLUTELY AGREE.

BTW this sounds crazy....but one day i always dreamed my error collection t206 would be big enough to one day have my name on the flip...
