Sorry for the poor scans.... Not real good with this scanner and I thinkg the SGC card throws everything off a bit.

From T206 resource:

Sovereign 350 (Possible, not confirmed)
Sweet Cap 150 #25 (Possible, not confirmed)
Sweet Cap 150 #649 (Probable No-Print)

Nice run. Next......

Well done, good luck on the last one.

Any particular reason why you chose Lumley?

Thanks Bryan!
Lumley was my first T206 so he is my favorite card and add that to the fact his backs looked very attainable made it a go. Surprisingly to me, as I don't study these things, the OM along with the SC factory 25s are the toughest to find.

That's interesting. I've been looking for Merkle portrait cards, and the Old Mill has been the hardest one to find as well.

Don't "misunderestimate" the difficulty of 150/350 subjects with OM.

They are roughly as difficult as 150/350 subjects with Brown Hindu.

Edited to add: The reason is that OM printing did not start until after the 150 print run had been completed and the 350 print run was reasonably well underway.

Is there a simple explanation as to why there is no Polar Bear backed Lumley?

Wow, that Lumley run is really cool! Any particular reason you chose that player?
