Type 1

Picked up the Victory from Frank Ward about 15 years ago. From the creases on the back it looks to be the card used in Lipset's Encyclopedia

My Victory isn't pretty... But, its the only McLean I've seen.




Here is my Type-2 Red Cross



Be well Brian

Default Amazing cards!

Amazing cards guys! I've owned a Red Cross before, but never a Victory before, but hope to someday. A pirate back won't ever happen so why worry about it.... Anyway, my question is about how many of each- Red Cross type1, type 2, and Victory backed cards are out there as compared to say a t206 or is there an exact, approximate count of each type in existence? I'm just being curious.
Thanks for sharing.

Mike H.- Tinker pose Victory is amazing!

Here is my poor example of a Red Cross. What's special about this one is that is a Jersey City Purtell. I collect Jersey City cards and never thought I would ever pick up this card. It's hard enough to find a single Red Cross example let alone a specific player so when I picked this one up I was ecstatic.

Andy, that's great. I understand just how you feel, getting a rare back with exactly the right player.

Hi Tim,
You have interesting questions about populations. The pop reports for all of the grading companies are a complete mess, so i wouldn't rely on them.

Here is my completely flying by the seat of my pants numbers:

T214 - only 63 of the possible 90 cards are known to exist. I would guess that only 1 to 3 cards of each of the 63 are known to exist.

T215-1 and 2 - my guess is between 1 and 6 or so of each of the known cards. You might find a few players with slightly more than 6, but I doubt it.

Compare this to 1000 examples or more, of many of the T206 cards.

I hope others who are more knowledgeable than me will chime in with their estimates.


Rick
