T206 Joe Tinker with 1910 stamp

Erik, I'm not following your point. You quoted Scot Reader's description of when the Sweet Cap 350-460 Series was printed, but the card in your post is from the 350 Series, which was printed earlier.
So yes, it seems that the card could have been stamped on the day it was acquired... or on any day thereafter.
I think that was what you were asking, but if I missed your point, well, sorry.

I usually assume the stamps on backs are legit. However with the finding of the Toy Town stamp games it does make one wonder? I try to think of motive and there really isn't a good one to do it today, imo. Most of these stamps actually detract a little (to a lot) from the value.

Agreed. The only stamp that I find concerning in terms of potential fraud due to opportunity for increased value is the stamp that purportedly belonged to F. Scott Fitzgerald. And of course, the "Old Put" stamp...

That said, I do find the random stamps (i.e. carriage, castle, names, etc..) pretty cool. It would be quite a downer to find out that they were put on long after the cards were issued as that is the main allure of them to me (and granted, I'm not a high end condition collector).
