Hanford
I think that there were supposed to be many more T205 Gold Borders.
Obviously the backs indicate that there should be potentially 400. It is likely that many of the unissued cards were to be minor leaguers. Some here noted the red nameplate for Hanford. The border is unique for Hanford because he is on a different team than the other mL players. There would be more Jersey City players with that design if they issued them, which appears unlikely by now. The company likely created that border for JC team, anticipating issuing several other players. It just seems like an unfinished project to me, nothing more. This set is the best of all of them in my opinion, I wish they had finished it.
