In all the T206 back discussions I've never seen this question
How many different homogeneous back complete sets can be made. If you exclude the big 3, can complete sets be made of Piedmont 150 Factory 25 backs? Do you have to eliminate the series (150, 350, 350-450) to be able to complete a Piedmont 25 set? How many individual back variations have an example of every card, and how lenient do you have to be of series and factory numbers to make it work?

http://t206resource.com/Checklist%20Main.html No back brand has all the fronts, but I think Piedmont (factory 25) comes closes, if you combine the 150, 350, and 460 varieties. Ted Z would know about this, since I believe he has an all-Piedmont set. To answer your specific question, there are only 156 different fronts with Piedmont 150 Factory 25 backs: http://t206resource.com/Piedmont%20150%20Checklist.html |

Hi Scott Yes, your question has been addressed many years ago. Having completed (minus Doyle, Plank and Wagner) an all-PIEDMONT (Factory #25) brand set of T206's confirms all 522 subjects in the set are included with the PIEDMONT back. Note....the Demmitt & O'Hara (St Louis) variations were printed only with POLAR BEAR backs. Any other T206 tobacco back (SWEET CAPORAL, SOVEREIGN, etc.) set falls short of this number. For example, my completed (minus Wagner) all-SWEET CAPORAL (Factory #30) set comprises of 468 cards. And, my completed all-SOVEREIGN set comprises of 402 cards. TED Z .

I should let Ted speak for himself but I don't think he double-counts the 150/350 guys who are available with both Sov 150 and Sov 350. That may account for the difference.

Is it a complete Sovereign set if it lacks some of the Sovereign cards? What's the consensus? The six super-prints come in both Sov 460 and Sov 350 apple green. So that's another handful of cards where there's overlap between the different Sovereign series.

A complete basic all-SOVEREIGN set consists of 402 different T206 subjects. This is the set that I originally put together in 2007. When you include the 6 super-prints (on display here) with their SOVEREIGN 460 backs, plus the repeated 150 series cards (76) with their SOVEREIGN 350 backs, you then have a complete Master SOVEREIGN set totaling 484 cards. . ............... Thanks Scot for your support. TED Z . |

If the story about the Gretzky Wagner being cut from a sheet is true, that would still make it a scrap.
