How about posting some T205 back Runs

[tedzan]

Some nice T205 Runs, guys....thanks for sharing them with us.


Here's my back run, I think I'm missing only the elusive HINDU back. If any one on this forum has a reasonably priced T205 HINDU card to sell (or trade),
I would greatly appreciate it. Email me at...... tedzan11@comcast.net


A - B - C - D connection

Ted - great cards! How about the Broadleaf green? Most sources I've seen recognize two different BL backs.

Do you know if the ABCD cards be found with only black American Beauties and Broadleafs, or both black and green?

Thanks, Dan

The ABCD subjects are only found with the black AMERICAN BEAUTY back.

Here I've reprised my DRUM checklist, in which I state that T205 subjects with the Green American Beauty back will NOT be found with a DRUM back (i.e., the ABCD connection) .
I have been collecting T205's since the 1980's and have yet to see this premise proven otherwise.

Regarding the green BL cards, there are so few of them, and I'm beginning to suspect that they may possibly have resulted due to printing errors. For example, Huggins has been
reported to only exist with a green BL back. I have Huggins with a black BL back.

The key factor in this A = B = C = D equation is the Black American Beauty back. Note that T205 subjects with the Green American Beauty back will NOT
be found with a DRUM back.


T205 DRUM checklist......32 subjects

James Austin
John Bates
Beals Becker
George Bell
William Bergen
Russell Blackburne
Albert Bridwell
Mordecai Brown
Harold Chase (border on shirt)
Frank Corridon
Thomas Downey
Louis Evans
George Graham (blue signature)
Buck Herzog
Richard Hoblitzell
Miller Huggins
Jack Knight
A. Latham
Thomas Leach
John Lobert

Briscoe Lord
Patrick Moran
Frederick Olmstead
George Paskert
Fred Payne
Edward Phelps
John Quinn
Lewis Richie
David Shean
George Stone
Zach Wheat
Harry Wolter


The above 5 names in bold have yet to be confirmed with a DRUM back. However, they already have been confirmed with the A - B - C pattern.
Therefore, I expect these 5 subjects will eventually be discovered with the DRUM back.

Huggins is my favorite of these T205 A-B-C-D sub-sets......

I've been searching for Huggins with a DRUM back for quite a while. Any help in finding this DRUM will be enormously appreciated.

Hey guys, any more T205 Runs out there ? If so, why not show them ? ?

Thanks... clearly my reading comprehension a few posts back wasn't very good.

Great thread idea and excellent content. Not necessarily surprised since the human encyclopedia himself started it.

Makes me want to get more into T205s...

A bit slow to the party, but here's what I have of a T205 Gibson back run so far. I had a Sweet Cap but it was trimmed so I gave it away. I thought it'd be easier to replace than it has been. I also need the Polar Bear and American Beauty still.








Cheers,

Richard.

Richard, sending you a PM on a T205 Gibson Polar Bear.
