T201 Triple Prints

Zach - not sure why but your photos/scans aren't showing up for me.

[Matt]

He's in a meeting - he'll get the photos up shortly.

Sorry, I was tied up and couldn't add the pictures earlier. The first pic is of a Speaker card shoring how they are notriously miscut left-toright. In this example it includes half of the adjacent Speaker card. T201 misprints have been selling for significantly more than a normal cut T201 - just not sure why. In this example you can clearly see that in this instance a Speaker card was clearly printed adjacent to another Speaker.

The second photo is of a Grant/Cobb edge comparison. This photo seems to show that in this instance a Cobb was printed adjacent to a Grant card.

I will post two more photos in the next post.

This photo shows the entire Grant & Cobb cards, side by side. It is a little easier to see that the entire borders are consistent.

The last photo shows a Cobb card showing that it also was printed adjacent to another Cobb card.

Thanks to Matt, Jay and everyone for all of your help with this.

That I think it is fanastic that Zach Wheat is alive and posting in our Forum! How cool is that?
But very unfortunate that people tie him up in meetings. How awkward and inappropriate! And no way to treat a HOFer!


In all seriousnessness...ness, thanks for sharing all the info and thoughts on this set. It is an interesting one.

Here is a miscut Cobb / Crawford. It is obviously an edge card with the miscut occurring from the left side...





Lovely Day...

What factory was this printed at? Thanks.

Nice work. The following website has pictures of all the cards in the set:

The Mathewson and Chance cards pictured here both appear to have Factory 649 backs. Hope that helps somewhat.

I've been collecting these miscuts as well....have about 5 so far. Here is another angle of the Crawford/Cobb. The back side has Cobb's back side.

Beckett will grade the card and label all the player names but I think it needs to either be a certain percentage miscut or the players identity shown. Nice challenge to collect and I really like Beckett's approach to labeling them.

I hate it when people let there jobs get in the way of our collecting.
