That was a fun saga, the most low effort fakes I have ever seen. The seller was a real piece of work; he responded to my report that his cards were fake with an invective filled rant so bad I'm surprised he didn't get banned by eBay. Still keep my eyes peeled for a T218 signature that might actually be real; never seen one. Abel Kiviat died in 1991 and several of the guys lived into the 70's. A Coulon or something may exist out there somewhere.

The black Ogdens issues are awesome. I'm slowly building the boxing subsets after a former member here got me more into the British tobacco cards. I buy lots of the non-sports subjects when I see them cheap; one could make a wonderful collection covering everything from politics to history to zoology to sports to architecture to the stage just from these issues. Nice pickups

Yeah, the various Ogdens black border issues and the Guinea Gold stuff is absolutely fascinating...and they are vast in their topics. I've always liked them because they are a very early photographic tobacco issue, and back when I was buying lots of them 20+ years ago, they were absolutely dirt cheap. Don't even know what I did with most of them, probably got bored with them and sold most of them off years ago (for dirt cheap again), but a part of me wished I kept them around and hoarded more of them, just out of curiosity. There's a decent article on the "General Interest Series" on the Pre-War Cards site here: https://prewarcards.com/2019/11/07/o...ack-and-field/ Last edited by D. Bergin; 08-24-2022 at 08:37 AM.

Yeah, when I boiled down my black bordered Ogdens cards to one of each series or issue, I made sure to keep a Jeffries. Still need a Heroes of the Ring type (I think; gotta check).
