T201 Triple Prints

Here is a miscut Cobb / Crawford. It is obviously an edge card with the miscut occurring from the left side...

Factory No. 30 District 2...

Zach,

I have the Mathewson/Bridwell and the Evers/Chance and both have the Factory 649 1st District back. They are both in PSA slabs, which, unfortunately are preventing me from getting a clear enough scan to post.

Thank you for a well written article.

Best Regards,
Craig

Edited to add that here is a Mathewson/Bridwell on ebay with the 649 back:

Crawford/Cobb were also printed next to Stovall and Turner (card no longer mine):

Nice work. The following website has pictures of all the cards in the set:

The Mathewson and Chance cards pictured here both appear to have Factory 649 backs. Hope that helps somewhat.

I've been collecting these miscuts as well....have about 5 so far. Here is another angle of the Crawford/Cobb. The back side has Cobb's back side.

Beckett will grade the card and label all the player names but I think it needs to either be a certain percentage miscut or the players identity shown. Nice challenge to collect and I really like Beckett's approach to labeling them.

I don't want to offtrack the thread, as Mike has done a great job with his novel research on this undercollected set.
Kevin - quick question - does Beckett not take centering into account in their grading scale? A badly OC card can still grade a 7?

[onlychild]

Matt,

They don't take the centering into consideration on the grade when the miscut is so bad it makes it somewhat of an error. They have a strict criteria.

From what I understand if no players where shown on the miscut it would have dropped the grade considerably. It was a great decision by Mark Anderson at Beckett...this card is what started it all!

I have a Yzerman rookie card that is 50% miscut but graded a 7. Had the other player not shown and the miscut was far less it would have graded a 2.

Does on Net 54 anyone own or save a scan of the 4 player miscut that sold on eBay 2-3 years ago? If I remember correctly, the card was almost perfectly miscut right to left and top to bottom with 4 players showing on the front. I think two of the players were Grant & Cobb. This would have to be the grand daddy of miscuts, but I doubt it would grade out at Beckett. Thanks.
