Very good article. Thanks for posting, Alan. I have both sets and a blank album for both years. But my sets are in singles with only a few example panels.
Agree with you on the Sievers. I looked for it a long time because as you note it was in the SCD Catalog. I once asked Bob Lemke about it and he said he usually did not include something in the Catalog unless he had seen some example or proof but he could not specifically recall seeing the Sievers. I think he may have even later asked for verification in an SCD article or his blog but do not believe any example showed up. Your explanation about it's origin is certainly possible Last edited by ALR-bishop; 10-13-2019 at 07:41 PM.

Sometimes back in the day, Larry Fritsch would say he owned a certain variation of a card and no one else ever found any of them. There is a funky last text line on the 1968 Bill Stoneman and the 1959 Bill White supposedly has both a trade and no trade line. Neither have ever been found but IIRC the rumours of both variations came from Fritsch.
I'm sure there are others as well. Some of which (T-206 Doyle) are later proven to be true so keep looking as one never knows Rich

Rich-- I looked for the White as well. It was never in SCD but I had heard the rumors. Did not know Fritsch was the source. I had not heard about Stoneman. What is the "variation" for it ?

The last line on the 1968 Bill Stoneman bio is cut off at ‘Bill was used sparingly but still’. For years there has been mention of a card that has the incomplete sentence omitted but I am convinced it doesn’t exist. I have the card in Topps, OPC, Milton Bradley, and Venezuelan and all of them have the incomplete sentence.

Thanks for posting that Alan. I fell in love with the '61 stamps when my friends and I were pulling them out of packs. A few years ago I found a decent album with a few stamps in it and decided to make filling it up a casual project.
It's been a lot of fun. I'm about 3/4 of the way there. Some teams have a slot or two open. For some reason filling the Cleveland page has proven tough, I need seven of them to fill the 12 spots. I'll get there.
