T210-7 & 5 Printing Oddity & Question
I acquired Cantwell and Bivens (middle) in the recent REA auction. Cantwell, with its uneven borders, appears to be hand-cut, and I suspect that Bivens may be as well, especially with the uneven cut at the top border.
It is also interesting that neither card appears to have had the protective finish applied to it resulting in a flat printed surface devoid of the gloss that characterizes T210s. The contrast between black/white is not as deep when the gloss finish is not used. (For comparison I’ve scanned a Bivens card with the gloss finish.) I’m wondering if most hand-cut versions of T210s resulted from reject sheets that did not have the gloss coat applied. Does anyone else have hand-cut/gloss-less examples they could post, or send me privately (mpeich12@gmail.com)? Thanks for looking and for sharing information. Cheers, Mike

Hi Mike,
I've had some "glossless" and partial gloss cards, but never hand cut and mis-cut. That Cantwell is an interesting T210. I don't recall seeing a top border like that on a T210. Very strange. Wouldn't the name from the card above be there or am I missing something? Thanks for sharing. Rob Last edited by caramelcard; 05-05-2015 at 10:40 AM.

Hey Mike,
I do have another Winston Salem player that is hand cut and without gloss... I will post it when I get home. As you know, the gloss on T210's is all over the place.. I have quite a few factory cut cards with no gloss too... Hope you are well Brian

Hi, Rob,
I agree with Tom. I think the Cantwell was probably trimmed at the top of the sheet. These are the first two gloss-less cards I've encountered, and they appear to be hand-cut, hence my interest. Any thoughts from anyone else? Cheers, Mike

Cantwell looks hand-cut on all four sides. That always makes me wonder if the "card" was cut from a poster or advertising sheet of some kind. That also would/could explain the lack of gloss. Is the stock correct for the issue?
