I personally LOVE the E95.

[PEEK enterprises]

Other beautiful/difficult Planks. Either of these, along with the E104's, would be the most similar to the T206 as they too have blue backgrounds:

D359 (Williams & Rochester Baking)
T208 Fireside (this is probably the most expensive)

[Leon]

One of the scarcest, next to the T208, would be the E104 w/nadja back.

It seems like to me the M116 Sporting Life or E95 are the least expensive route to a T206-like pose of Plank.

I have seen an SGC 70 M116 Sporting Life listed for $1250, and a PSA 7 for $2400. Any idea if these listings are anywhere near what these cards would go for at auction?

FWIW
VCP avgs. SGC70 = $921.00 PSA7 = $1265

If those are ebay BINs I imagine that they are a bargain!

The 1911 Diamond Gum Pins series also features the same Plank pose as the T206. Is it a Carl Horner portrait?

I'm thinking that rawoysterman could probably put you into these for under $20 though!

I would like a Ramly or E107 as well.

There's an SGC 10 E107 Plank in next month's Heritage auction.

Thanks for the great responses. And if anyone is looking to part with an E95 or M116 Plank, send me a PM. Thanks!

matt easy fix with the rose...soak it to get the photo and name off...buy a a NRMT common...repeat above step...affix the plank onto the NRMT mount.

(sell the common with the pinhole to recoup back some money)

Quan - That's pretty sneaky; I never even contemplated that could be done with Rose PCs - I'd hope people wouldn't do that, but knowing our hobby, I'm sure it happens.

Leon - the E104 appears to be a different pose of Plank (albeit still a portrait).

I was only going by what the original poster put in his post. To paraphrase-

" So I've been looking into substitute cards with a similar pose. So far I've identified:

E95 Philadelphia Caramel
M116 Sporting Life
E104 Nadja "


kind regards
LL

edited to add that I understand "T206-like" was in the title. But I don't think that was the exact question, though it could have been, I guess

[canjond]

I actually think its the same pose, just inverted

I think you're right - they did move the 'A' on the uniform over though.
