not at all!
![]() maybe it was a bad analogy..... artist "prototypes" or "proofs" are used in all aspects of manufacture.... engineers will build a "prototype" to "sell" or "test" a product or machine before the board of directors, the owners of companies, CEO's, ect ect approve the final design to be mass produced...... hot wheels, star wars figures, cars , planes, ect , ect, ect.......all go through this process, as do baseball cards from pre war to post war and modern.... "concepts" to "proto types" to "final design" has many stages usually evolve until the "final end product" is accepted to be mass produced.... artists "concepts" or "proposal to the board" for final approval in either engineering , publication , ect , ect..... T206 proofs are not your "ordinary printers scrap" (which is oxy moranical ![]() ![]() T206 Proofs are scraps that: were part of the T206 Design Process , in which the artist / artists used them in the development of the final design of each T206......each "end product" was, in fact, the final image(color, registration, art design, image, ect) of the card.....that's why some T206 proofs(Type 1 as termed by T206RESOUCE) are a little different than the actual final card image....... so, the historical significance of "proofs" in relation to T206 is immeasurable... these were concept cards/ "design tools" aiding the co. to develop the final art or product.......... that's why none were meant to be in the publics hands, and is amazing they survived to this day ![]() |
