Curious, How would they have know this some 90 years ahead of him dying?
Or am I just missing what your trying to say?

Way to maintain that child-like innocence Denny

This may have been the communication problem, set your sarcasm meter to "high", then see if it doesn't make more sense.

Everything I wrote at the top was a lie, btw. Definitely wasn't an original idea, or a random set on my part. I wrote in the T205 freaks post that I found this card while looking for a T205 and decided right then to make a post about T207's

Interesting stuff. Can you imagine if you were a kid, and came upon a pile of say, 100 T205, T206 and T207 cards, representing all the various 'freak' examples we've seen posted here.

As a kid, wouldn't you just throw most of them away?

Nope, but I was probably an odd kid. One of my favorite cards when I was collecting in 74- the first year I bought much more than a pack or two- was actually more like 3/4 of a card. From the top of the sheet and way miscut.

I still have that one.

I agree Scott, they would have found the trash can. Flash forward 90 odd years and I still constantly replace miscut T207s with nicely cut ones. I guess I am one of those who prefers aesthetically pleasing cards instead of freak miscuts. I think it's great that there are collectors who collect miscut cards, I'm just in the minority I guess

Here's a neat T207. Never seen a ghost this dark in T207.

If a T207 blank back falls in the forest, and no one is around to hear it, will it make a sound?
