Ryan said it perfectly. Quite a rare back, nuanced, but definitely underpriced for how rare it is.

Here's one...

Circa early 1990's, I started a PIEDMONT 350-460 Factory 42 run. I neared it's completion (90 %) by 2006. Then, I decided to break it up.
Subsequently, I helped four Net54 collectors (including David Hall) to complete their "42" runs by trading from my set of these cards.

I kept my PIEDMONT 350-460 Factory 42 blue Chase, since he is my favorite T206. Also, I kept this Mike Donlin card since this card is part
of my Donlin run.

Nice Ted, kept my example as well. As mentioned Tinker is oddly tough (thanks Ryan!).

I have a couple. The bat off is much more difficult than the red.

I would like to add a Matty Dark cap P42 to my run at some point. I have only one so far. Overall, definitely a tough back to track down.

To clarify, David Hall did not complete the PD 42 run. He was missing the Chase Trophy and for many years had PSA convinced it did not exist. The subset is very difficult to complete. There are many cards that seem to show up more often than others. Then the opposite happens with the Tinker batting, Donlin, Schlei Portrait and the Evers as well to name a few. I collected the back run of these because I needed a fun rare back challenge and I live in NC. It was a 5 year or so journey that cost quite a bit of money( once people know you want them you are in trouble, at least I was) but was fun to complete. Teds list of 72 are the ones that have been seen. There are 4 that are speculated to exist but have not been proven to exist. Value is all over the place. The higher grades start to rival other similar difficult backs but the low grade average around 2-3X. Didn't mean to ramble on but these have been a passion.
