Before now, I had never considered picking up cards with print oddities...I just passed them by and kept on going. For some reason, though, this T206 Tolstoi Ed Abbaticchio really caught my eye:
![]() Even the Factory designation is readable ![]() ![]() I picked it up at a card show today from a fellow board member who was set up there. We had a great conversation about T206 cards, he taught me a few things about the set, and I walked away with a card that truly appeals to me. Can't ask for a better hobby experience than that, in my opinion! Happy Saturday, everyone ![]() Best Regards, Eric

Thanks for the feedback on Abbaticchio. You're right - this is the second raw card I have picked up. I also have some graded T206...12 cards in total. I just posted a group photo in the, "Let's see 'em laid-out" thread. ![]() Hope all is well. Have a great weekend, my friend. Best Regards, Eric

Cool. I've seen players name on the back but not factory on the front.

Craig - Try soaking the card to see if the wall paper will come off on its own. If you haven't soaked a card before, there are a few threads on Net54 on how to do that. If you try it, let us know/see the results.

I would say just by looking at the front your Overall is not a Hindu. Look at this one and compare the colors. Most common redish fronts are orange when the back is Hindu. This does not happen on the red south hindus ![]()
