Ted, thanks for updating your list; I believe this is the same one.

Johnny, Jeff and BigFish, thanks for the kind words (Happy New Year Johnny).

BigFish -- I have been able to find a PSA 1 Jennings, One Hand, Black Lenox sold in memory lane in 2017, but I am unaware of any other Browns. If Hall does indeed have one and it goes up for sale, I may have to buy and destroy it so mine is again a 1 of 1 (joke!)

Ryan, now you know how I felt when my 1 of 1 Merkle Brown Lenox became 1 of 2 because you got another one.

Incredible looking card!! Interestingly, this card combo was not on his list. Maybe he found one right before he decided to sell the collection. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Ted et al,

Looks like 24 poses confirmed. I assume most cards are 1/1, (with some maybe having 2 examples of each?)...So, any idea how many Brown Lenox exist in total?

[Rhotchkiss]

Michael, I am not sure that's a correct statement: that all Brown Lenox are 1 of 1's. You know personally that McQuillan is not, and both Joe Lake with ball and Merkle throwing are at least 1 of 2.

In my experience, most Brown old mills have counterparts too. I understand the many difference between the Brown old mill and Brown lenox, but one similarity they appear to share (besides being crazy rare) is that (I think) most have at least a twin; whether that twin still exists is another story/question.

[MVSNYC]

Ryan, didn’t say ALL are 1/1, just that I assumed most were, with some twinning happening...If all had twins, assuming, then we’d be around 50 cards total. If 3, around 75, etc. Just wanted to get some opinions on total population.
