Why spend 1000's of $$$$ on a T206 Demmitt (St Louis) when you can get the same image for only about $100 - 200 by buying his T213-2 version.

Hi Ted,

What's particularly cool about your Demmitt T213-2 is that there is Demmitt "New York" team letter residue on the uniform! Never noticed that before. Very cool.

Possibly the only three team card:

1) New York artwork residue;
2) St. Louis artwork rewrite;
3) Chicago team caption.

Hope all is well & have a great Christmas.

Hi Scot...... you are very observant.

The T213 Demmitt uniform is quite "grainy", while the T206 uniform is bright white. Apparently, American Lithographic used an old (and worn out) printing plate to print the T213.
Very interesting.

Wishing you a and your Family a very MERRY CHRISTMAS

This Munson is a major card in the context of the 1970s, but mine was only a few bucks!



As a bonus it came with a piece of a different card!



Some would say this is a wrong back Gumbert; I prefer wrong front DiMaggio
