John and Chris, you are sick men.
And I mean that as the highest compliment.

This really is a great thread - I love to see Johnny show the occasional negative emotion (it doesn't happen often). Chris is a very subdued version of Johnny, but he definitely has the scrap bug.
I have not told many people this, but the reason my monster number is so small, despite the fact that I basically only collect photos and T206's, is that the only T206's I allow in my collection are 'oddball's - two names (6 have 2 different names), ghosts (2) - and they are sweet ones, missing ink, wrong back colors, two factories, tough backs, etc. So I'm not a purist freak collector, in that I would rather spend thousands on several rare photos as opposed to one piece of scrap, I'm in the general area. Given how many T206's have passed through my hands, it really enhances the collecting experience to build the set the way I'm doing it. When I hit 522 (no Wagner or Doyle), it should be quite the oddball grouping.

This has turned out to be a great thread! I hate flying off the handle, but I'm like the number one scrap advocate
![]() Scott.....I know you collect oddball T206 and I think i'm still mad I didn't pick up all those sweet scrap you used to own ....I still remember the Downey, and how cool it looked, but 10 years ago at $750.00 I almost did it......and the dorner multi strike sweet cap back, which took me 9 more years to find another.....don't mean to bring up the past![]() your a collector, I have always looked up to and still do.......sorry for being a hot head ![]() scrap and the freaks make me not think sometimes...... ....as you guys know...Leon is the man, and thanks for all the compliments from everyone... The God's honest truth is the cards really can't be enjoyed as much , if it not for this forum to share info.....and every single collector I have met have been the greatest people.....I will add more tom and maybe some scrap

It's an interesting debate and the cards are cool looking and worth what people will pay for them.
Argument A- The T206 printers were artesians, honing their craft and carefully calibrating their tools. Argument B- They were sloppy and probably drunk. I guess if I had to vote I'd vote for B. |

Oh... The one posted above looks like it! Does it have a pencil erasure? Somebody had written "1B" on it, and I gently erased it with an art eraser.

I don't see any erasure on it, but there is some paper loss on the back. It's graded PSA 1 for some reason. I thought this type of scrap is always graded authentic ? Was it graded when you owned it ? |
