T206 Reference / Reflections.....Tuesday Nite Trivia

[Ronnie73]

I do remember a few years back, that a Plank Piedmont was graded with a numerical grade. I questioned then if it should have been graded that way. As far as what I'd prefer when building a set, I'd like a Factory 25 over a Factory 30.

About 8 (or so) years ago there was a PIEDMONT 150 Plank graded by SGC. I think they graded it SGC 70.

Like you, I question the validity of that grade on that Plank.

The Piedmont Plank SGC 70 went for $330K in 2012.

That's the one I remember. Wow, 7.5 years ago. Didn't seem that long ago. I found the two original posts to that particular Piedmont Plank. Interesting trip back in time but after reading them again, sadly not much has changed in the hobby.

There is no predicting which T206 subjects will be found with no Tobacco advertisement printed on their back. Blank-Back (B-B) T206's are simply a random phenomena.

Needless to say, B-B T206 cards are highly sought after, and big $$$$ are usually paid to acquire these cards.

So, let us see how many Blank-Back (B-B) T206's we can display here. And, perhaps some one will post a B-B HOFer. I have yet to see such a T206. Well, I will start this
show with my B-B......

Thanks to Dan McKee for giving me a nice deal on this card.
