#39 Gandil - Normal 144 and small s

The "15,000,000" versions start at 73...which is the second series of CJ's. Interesting that the stats on the back listing 10 million and 15 million (indicating 5M of the second print run) match up with the observation that there are about half as many of series 2 as series 1's. Never understood why there isn't more of a distinction between the two series...though everyone knows the higher series is harder.

Not sure about the mysterious SPs...though I've never entirely bought into them as a concept...even though I'm sure people do believe in them.

For the record...my 50 or so 1914's in my mixed set all agree with the printing variations listed...I don't think any have been found with different versions for the same player.

PSA pop reports show cards 1-72 (10,000,000 pictures including both Bresnahan versions) account for about 61.4% of the graded examples and cards 73-144 (15,000,000 pictures) account for the remaining 38.6%. So there are definitely fewer graded examples of the second half of the set currently available.

There is always something new to learn in the old cads.

And a '14 Jennings, I no longer own, from my first collection...
