Never Seen Broad Leaf 460

[scottglevy]

For anyone who doubts just how rare BL460 is....

Back in the “day” which for my dad and I was the ‘80s into the mid ‘90s we collected a LOT of rawt206s often purchased as large lots. Folks didn’t pay much attention to backs and we found every single back type with the exception of Drum, BL460, Brown Lenox and Brown OM. I even found 3 Uzits (one on a Cobb bat off which was particularly awesome) over the years ...those other cards are just so so tough!!

Hello,

I guess I missed it but what was the find and what else was in it?

I guess this is a tough question? I, as did someone else, asked in the OP's other thread and still no reply?

I am not, for one second, suggesting something fishy is going on, I just enjoy reading stories about these finds so I'd also like to read about this one if possible?

Agree. Could you post the other 460 broad leafs that came in this collection?

Thanks for sharing

Near the end of the T206 press runs (circa late 1910-early 1911), American Lithographic separated the 63 subjects in the 350/460 series into 2 print groups.

On display here are the 35 subjects that were printed with the BROAD LEAF 460 back. Listed below are the 29 subjects, which (to date) have been confirmed
with the BROAD LEAF 460 back......


Group A
.





Baker
M. Brown (Chicago)
Cobb (red portrait)
Davis (A's)
Donlin (bat)
Doolan (bat)
Dougherty (arm in air)
Downey (bat)
Elberfeld (Washington-fielding)
Evers (bat-yellow sky)
Griffith (bat)
Johnson (pitching)
Joss (pitching)
Kleinow (Boston)
Konetchy (glove low)
Magee (bat)
Mathewson (dark cap)
McIntyre (Brooklyn & Chicago)
Murphy (bat)
O'Leary (hands on knees)

Reulbach (no glove)
Rucker (throwing)
Seymour (throwing)
Snodgrass (catching)
Stahl (glove)
Street (catching)
Sweeney (fielding)
Willis (throwing)
Cy Young (glove)


Listed here are 6 subjects from this group that have yet to be discovered with BROAD LEAF 460 backs.
I expect these T206's will eventually be found with BROAD LEAF 460 backs. In recent years, discoveries of BROAD LEAF 460 cards tend to trickle in.
Approx. a year ago, Donlin (bat) was a new discovery. Now we have Magee (bat) as a new discovery.

Ames (hands above head)
Bender (no trees)
Chance (portrait-yellow)
Chase (blue)
Chase (dark cap)
Larry Doyle (bat)



NOTE....that the 460-only series subjects were NOT printed with the BROAD LEAF 460 back.
