T212 1910 Obak Master Front-Back Checklist

[markf31]

I found a copy of the March article which does contain a new table of combinations. I will work this evening to incorporate that updated list into mine. I'll post here again when it completed. Thanks!

Great Mark--keep up the good work. I don't even collect Obaks, but I always love it when set info is developed and fleshed out. I started to save and organize scans from the 1910 set, but put it on hold a year or so ago. As you can see, I am not even halfway:

BTW, I did not review your list closely and it's possible collectors couldn't care less, but have you noticed whether individual player/back combinations can carry the two different frame back designs. or instead is each such combination found with only one?

So I was able to get my checklist updated with the checklist that was printed in the March 2001 issue of VCBC and my checklist is now up to 566 combinations.

While Jeff Obermyer stated in the March 2001 article that his table was up to 586 combinations, the player list checklist printed in that issue only shows 560 combinations, but the other table printed in that issue, updating how many of each back there are does total up to 586.

So it would seem his player list checklist never got updated in print unfortunately, and so the checklist I have pulled together is missing 20 combinations or so. Perhaps board members will help fill in some of these apparent 20 holes.
