I am looking for who started the rumor . Nagy was perpetuating it according to information found last night when looking for Todd's (hey Todd) M101-4/5 stuff.

I just find it interesting that with the controversy over whether or not Ty Cobb backs are legitimate T206s (glossy front, etc.) the only true T206 back among the three listed is the one that is scratched out.

This index card came from the estate of Corson through Dr. James Lowe. I think they were very good/best friends for a long time. There is so much about the history of the hobby we don't know. There really isn't a ton of stuff out there. Of course Burdick is studied quite a bit but not so much the other forefathers of the hobby. And it wasn't Wharton-Tigar though that was a good guess. And no "spraying and praying" of names just to try to win. So far the guesses have been legit. (right Teddy?)
