Hi Mike,
I've had some "glossless" and partial gloss cards, but never hand cut and mis-cut. That Cantwell is an interesting T210. I don't recall seeing a top border like that on a T210. Very strange. Wouldn't the name from the card above be there or am I missing something? Thanks for sharing. Rob Last edited by caramelcard; 05-05-2015 at 10:40 AM. |

Could be the top card on a sheet......but all are very cool. Little to no T210 experience so no help here.....neat stuff.

Hey Mike,
I do have another Winston Salem player that is hand cut and without gloss... I will post it when I get home. As you know, the gloss on T210's is all over the place.. I have quite a few factory cut cards with no gloss too... Hope you are well Brian |

Hi, Rob,
I agree with Tom. I think the Cantwell was probably trimmed at the top of the sheet. These are the first two gloss-less cards I've encountered, and they appear to be hand-cut, hence my interest. Any thoughts from anyone else? Cheers, Mike

Cantwell looks hand-cut on all four sides. That always makes me wonder if the "card" was cut from a poster or advertising sheet of some kind. That also would/could explain the lack of gloss. Is the stock correct for the issue?

If it was the top of the sheet, wouldn't it just be red up to the top? That looks like the bottom of another card with no name below it.

Todd-The paper stock seems to be the same so I don't think it's cut from advertising. And the Cantwell is definitely hand trimmed on all four sides.
Rob-That's a good point and I frankly don't know. However, I do suspect that the gloss finish may have been applied as the last run through the press. If a sheet were deemed faulty for some reason, the gloss would possibly not be applied, and the sheet would have been discarded. Discarded sheets must have been ripe for hand cutting. Brian-Can you show a few of your factory cut gloss-less cards? I guess we can chalk this up to another one of the mysteries of card production circa 1910! Cheers, Mike
