T206's - A Once In A Lifetime [Scan Heavy]

[usernamealreadytaken]

Won this in a lot from LOTG recently. Didn't know what to think about the Bender, but looks like it belongs among your Bender and Brown . . .

great cards! I love some of the ghosts....some are true error color variations you have there, others are not.....some are outstanding and some are caused by chemicals(as in the case with the bender).....

email me and I can let you know which ones are legit, and which ones aren't....too bad no scrap!(as far as I can see)

Ouch !!

Neat cards--thanks for sharing. I really like the Collins (Minny) missing caption and the double-captioned Turner with Lobert above.

Sean, I'm wondering about that Beaumont because I have one as well, also missing color and with a nearly identical pinhole.
What are the odds?

What are you wondering about it, Sean?

I'm curious because of how similar the cards appear . There was a thread about this last year in which a board member speculated that my Beaumont wasn't really missing the red. He thought that the card had been pinned-up in the sun, causing the red to fade.
Now here is another card that appears to have been pinned-up at some point, and it has the same amount of missing red color. Either he was right, or that is an amazing coincidence.

Sorry I can't remember the board member, or I would credit him by name.

One thing I've noticed over the years is that when a T206 shows some form of printing flaw, sometimes different flaws appear on the same player's cards. Its just a matter of time before they are found.

For instance, take Newt Randall. Here are three examples.

1. Newt "Abe" Randall
2. Newt Randall, who played for Milwaukef.
3. Newt Randall, with a stray line on the right side parallel with the image border.

There are others too.

Nice cards Sean1125!

Sean, I may have been a person who suggested that many of the light or slight missing red cards could be caused by sun damage or UV exposure. Not all but many IMO. Not sure if was about your Ginger card or not. It may have been a thread that discussed the below H&S auction lot. On the below cards I have little doubt UV played a role in their looks.




I wondered when these cards would show up again. Looks like they have. It's a shame the display pieces we're dismantled IMO...but the buyers choice in the end.

Sean B you may already be aware but many of your above scans seem to show cards that came from this group of cards affixed to the folk art items that sold in this H&S lot. Just an FYI.

Important question...is the Herzog a Large Ass?

[HRBAKER]

I know this, those are some Large Ass scans!

Awesome Cards! That Carrigan is only the second one (next to mine) that I have seen.
