I have this one as a type. Probstein had a couple up earlier this week and Huggins and Scott had a nice group of around 15 the other day.

There was a post in the last few weeks about there being a few Piedmont Art stamps that do not appear in the T205 set. I can't recall which cards they are.

I would pick up a few more to put into a T205 back run along with the silks that have the same images on the front.

I disagree. But I like stamps.

Thanks for the great posts! Any more scans would be awesome.

Here is the link to that T202 + T205 and T330-2 thread...although not a 'stamp' collector, I have always thought that the Piedmont Art Stamps were cool.

Here are my six stamps. The Killifer is one of the stamps that isn't in T205. I like this set because of the player/team combinations, especially the Federal Leaguers. I'm always interested in trading for more!

Oh wow, I didn't know there were stamps like the Killifer with t205 style art, but no corresponding t205. That sure lends credence to the theory that there were t205s that weren't printed for whatever reason to make up the 400 subjects.

sorry for the lag in posts.....i was kidding.....

i collect these buggers and really don't need any competition

probstein did have a couple last week. huggins auctioned 6 (not 15) nice examples.

lower grade examples, like probstein's, are not too difficult.....but finding a specific player would be quite tough.

examples like the huggins auction, or Mike's (above), are incredibly hard to find.

i would say you see maybe 20/year on ebay and very few in AH's.

there are 118 in the set, i think. while these do use the t205 images; there are 3, i believe, that are not the same image. bill killifer, joe wood, and the third escapes me.

i have collected these for 8-9 years.....i'm up to about 40 different.

I see these are Factory 42 and the other reverses show Factory 25 - any other variations?

Interesting Kevin.......some of the NONsports Stamps can be found with either Piedmont or the more tougher version Chesterfield....another Liggett Myers brand.....I'm assuming no one has ever seen a Chesterfield baseball stamp....
