I think these were the known front miscuts at the time, possibly a few more have surfaced since (I know Chris found another example, 2 players).

Prices have "yo-yo'd" a bit over the years, but seems like they are picking up steam again. Pretty rare/special cards.

Hey Mike. Here's the Pastorius/Lake that Chris found (I think Jamie has it now)
and a couple more, A 2nd Jordan and a Powell.

I think there's also another Green Cobb.

Big Change in price, as I believe the first one sold for nearly $9,500 in REA, the second one closer to $3,850, and this latest ebay one for under $1,200.

Perhaps the last one would have done better in an Auction House.

Does make me happy I stopped bidding on that first one - I think I bowed out at $4k (w/o vig) back in 2013

I think there is a Doolin-Lundgren (Chicago) vertical miscut out there somewhere. Not sure what that has to do with anything. Maybe others (Steve B.) will have some ideas?

Here's the discussion thread, but, alas, no pictures. http://www.network54.com/Forum/15365...06-T205+Sheets

not a doolin but 2 players

Jamie, really special card, glad you have it now.

Pete et al- yes prices have relaxed on freaks/scraps, etc...but I do think the front miscuts will always have a special niche; extremely rare, and the more you see of the next card, the more valuable it is. So the examples with just a sliver of the next card showing, won't command that much in the end.
