Possible Heitman Errors

[Archive]

Posted By: Joe P.

First of all, I can see what scot reader is attempting to do, and I commend him for it.
I'm for anyone that adds information to the already existing information.

Of the two T206 sets that have found a warm home:
Of the cards that you have listed, none have the "350" back.

For Joshua L:
From the T205 set that's only missing the Hoby no
stats back.
I didn't find a red Sweet Cap factory 25 back.

Having said that, I want to bring to scot's attention, another recent thread, interestingly enough about T206's "150 - 350" series.
The title: "Prices Realized On One T206"
I'll bump it for those that might be interested in checking it out.
In it I mentioned where I own a 150/350 card in question.

Now for the ground rules according to scot.
Correct me if I am not understanding the title.

As far as Bill Heitman's research into the 150/350 series, if any of us don't have any of the corresponding 350 to 150 series, we can assume that Heitman made possible error.

Having found a 350 Schulte, does that give Bill
one less possible error?
His listing for that card was right.

Whatever happened to, "Innocent until proven guilty?"

What some of you seem to forget is that most of the research was done well before the Internet became the rage.
Before grading and the sports stock market came into play.
During that time they barely knew about red Hindu's, no less the Doyle error.
If you call that a possible Heitman, or Lew Lipset error because they hadn't listed it, maybe it's because nobody else knew about them either.

The breed of collectors/researchers that I'm talking about, were from another time.
A time where they would sell, trade, exchange info and even send multi/multi cards through the mail for inspection to help with each others research.
Their interest was in adding, and not subtracting.
Whether it was meant to, (and I don't think that it was) or not.

The title, and the ground rules are a form of subtraction.

Now Let's Go Find Those Elusive 350's.
