T206 Southern League Old Mill backs expensive?

[t206blogcom]

Let's not forget Hindu southern league backs. They're far more scarce and much more expensive than OMSL or Piedmont 350 SL.

Hindu is cool and all, but since I'm a pretty low budget collector, I'm looking for stuff that is less scarce but more appealing to me personally. Polar Bear backs, for example - I really like them, and they're not so common as to be everywhere but not rare enough to have a real price multiplier.

Ted Z says:

These 34 - Southern Leaguers are relatively easy to find with the OLD MILL back.
And, are somewhat tougher to find with the PIEDMONT 350 back.

Just as a point of reference, my set breaks out as:

Bay....Piedmont
Bernhard....Piedmont
Breitenstein....Old Mill
Carey....Piedmont
Coles....Old Mill
Cranston....Old Mill
Ellam....Piedmont
Foster....Old Mill
Fritz....Piedmont
Greminger....Piedmont
Guiheen....Piedmont
Helm....Old Mill
Hickman....Old Mill
Hooker....Old Mill
Howard....Old Mill
Jordan....Old Mill
Kiernan....Piedmont
Lafitte....Old Mill
Lipe....Piedmont
Manion....Piedmont
McCauley....Old Mill
Molesworth....Piedmont
Mullaney....Old Mill
Otey....Old Mill
Paige....Piedmont
Perdue....Old Mill
Persons....Piedmont
Reagan....Piedmont
Revelle.....Old Mill
Ryan....Piedmont
Shaughnessy....Piedmont
Smith (Atlanta)....Piedmont
Thornton....Old Mill
Violat....Piedmont



AGAIN Ted states:
The reverse is true for these 14 - Southern Leaguer's, who are tougher to find with the OLD MILL back.
And, are more available with the PIEDMONT 350 back.


...And mine breaks out thusly:
Bastian....Piedmont
Hart (Little Rock)....Old Mill
Hart (Montgomery)....Old Mill
King....Piedmont
Lentz....Old Mill
Miller....Piedmont
Orth....Piedmont
Rockenfeld....Piedmont
Seitz....Piedmont
Smith (Shreveport)....Piedmont
Stark....Old Mill
Thebo....Piedmont
Westlake....Old Mill
White (Houston)....Piedmont

I really think, though Ted Z is correct, that there is not a large difference in availability Piedmont versus Old Mill....but I WAS wrong....once....
