T206 Drums vs Uzit updates

[Blitzu]

I did some additional follow up to looking into the drum vs uzit debate from this thread http://www.net54baseball.com/showthr...it+drum&page=2

Just thought I'd post some of the numbers I ran recently.

As of 02/14/2012:
SGC Uzit's= 90
SGC Drums=73
PSA Uzit's= 61
PSA Drums= 77

(Edit: By comparison in the 2009 thread posted by Jerrytotino there were:
SGC Uzit's= 81
SGC Drums= 62
PSA Uzit's= 33
PSA Drums= 60

That means since 2009 there has been an increase of 28 unit's and 17 drums by PSA, and an increase of 9 uzits, and 11 drums by SGC.)

2009 Totals- 114 UZIT and 122 Drums
Current Totals- 151 Uzit's to 150 Drums.

I know those numbers are skewed since I alone have two unit's that are not included in those totals, and I know of at least 2 other uzits that are not included.

Another thing I noticed was the great differences in the number of players available for each card by grader

For Uzit there were anywhere between 1 to 6 examples of a player vs Drum where there was only 1 to 2 examples for each player. Although for Uzit SGC had a total of 33 different players, and PSA had a total of 27 different players graded.
For Drum SGC had a total of 58 different players, and PSA had a total of 64 different players graded.

I didn't compare the players by company to see what the total's would be after being matched, but don't think it would be that much different.

I did note while looking at SGC's population report that the following players had both a Uzit and Drum registered under them.
Cy Seymour
Heinie Wagner
Jake Pfeister
Joe Lake
Orval Overall
Rube Manning
Sam Crawford
Vic Willis

Basically if anyone if planning on doing a back run with any of these players they definitely better have a deep pocket book to afford both examples.

Anyways, that was all I looked into. I wish we could get BGC's numbers and I'm not sure about GAI if they list the T206's by back (not prepared to pay 99 a year to find out).
