T206 sweet cap 150 factory 25 backs, Tougher than we think?

[jp1216]

Only 5 of 520 for me. 2 are HOFers (Keeler & Marquard)

[CMIZ5290]

[wazoo]

Out of 57 cards, I only have 2. Burch batting and Merkle Portrait.

Hi Kevin

I have 7 with a possible 8th (forgot to right down the factory # on my checklist) out of 276 total.

Wow...
Before Jim's post, most everyone was hovering around 1.5, 2, 2.5% (except Boca 7% and Eric 7/Cubs 25ish? = 28%).

Jim is at 33%....are you sure you're just counting factory 25's ?

edit to add: I just re-read Jim's post and see that 95% of his cards are SC................... back to the coffee pot! Carry on.
edit again:..... that's still 34% of all his SC's are factory 25's........... I would have expected more like 6% based on my own distribution list.

OK Kevin, since you insist


My T206 collection comprises of approximately 2000 cards. It breaks down as follows........

Cards
------
519 ............ all - PIEDMONT set (missing Wagner, Plank & Doyle error)

444 ............ all - SOVEREIGN complete set of 402 different subjects ( + 42 added cards towards a master set)

467 ............ all - SWEET CAP, Factory #30 set (missing Wagner & Plank) ..... SOLD

34 .............. SWEET CAP, Factory #649 (ovpt) complete sub-set

56 .............. AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 sub-set (56/75)

35 .............. T206 backs sub-set (35/39)
------
1555 = Total


Therefore, the remaining 445+ cards have been randomly acquired. In this lot of T206 cards, there are only three
SWEET CAP 150, Factory #25 cards, these are:

Chase (pink)
McIntyre (Brooklyn)
Schulte (front view)


Furthermore, my SWEET CAP 460, Factory #42 cards = 5

And, my SWEET CAP 460, Factory #42 (ovpt) cards = 12

Initially, I was surprised to some extent. However, after I considered this some more, I'm not that surprised. And, I say this because in the past couple of years
I have sold (or traded) 100's of my SWEET CAP cards; therefore, there may have been quite a few more SWEET CAP 150 Factory #25 cards in my inventory.

Anyhow, so far I think the responses to your thread here have revealed to us how tough the SWEET CAP 150 Factory #25 cards really are.

Furthermore, if I recall correctly the majority of the SWEET CAP 150 Wagner's and Plank's are from Factory #30 (NYC).....not, Factory #25 (Richmond, VA).

FWIW, 14/630

(and 38 SC 150 FAC 30 in the same group...)

[Vegas-guy]

Of my 35 I found:
1 SC 350-460 fact. 42 w/scroll OP but also still shows Fact. 30 as well "Red Murray Port."
1 SC 350-460 fact. 42 (no OP) "Chick Gandil"

My SC 150/25 Chase isn't a grade 7 .....however, it's the nicest one of the 5 cards I have of him.
