Vermont T206 / Fatima Poster Sign Find!
This board had 11 T3s glued onto the face of the board. Some of them covered the T206s you see. All of the T206s have damage and most appear to have Sovereign Backs. All are affixed to the board as shown with plenty of HOFrs.
Unfortunately, I obtained the board AFTER the T3s had been crudely removed. The flip side of this piece has a BEAUTIFUL Fatima Poster or sign that has also been affixed to the board. Pretty cool find but the cards are in pretty rough shape. A few actually appear to have a MINT corner here and there only to be roughed up by glue or ripped or something. So many cool Hall of Famers though! Thoughts? If there is any interest please PM me. I just wanted to show it off for tonite as its a cool piece. Peace, Mike PS Do you see a Wagner somewhere in there? I don't but that would be cool! thumbnail_IMG_1058.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1058.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1059.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1060.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1061.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1062.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1063.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1064.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1065.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1067.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1068.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1069.jpg thumbnail_IMG_1070.jpg Last edited by vthobby; 12-23-2018 at 04:38 PM. |

I love the story this tells! I imagine a couple guys smoking their cigs and sipping on some whiskey after a hard days work. Plastering the cards as they go.

Plastering as they get plastered... If you do find a Wagner, you could restore it and rake in a couple hundred grand - you might not need much of the card to get it done! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks like the cards are all 150 and 150/350 series cards, putting the creation of this piece in late '09
