T206 AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 sub-set survey....MISSION COMPLETE

[Sterling Sports Auctions]

Ted,

that list of ten is very similar to my list of Cycle 460s getting narrowed down. I do not believe I have have seen of known of more than 2 of each of the Cycle 460 copies of those 10 ABs listed. Any chance that some of these cards got double printed or 2 different series?

not sure about Herzog AB 460 but I am sure he exist in Cycle 460

[tedzan]

The CYCLE 460 cards were printed and issued (late 1910) prior to the AB 460 cards (1911). The CYCLE 460 backs
are found on most of the 109 possible subjects. Whereas, to date, we have only confirmed 70 of the possible 103
AB 460 cards. I don't expect that we will find too many more AB 460 cards. The reason being, that the Red HINDU
cards (issued in 1911) appear to complement the AB 460 cards in the total run of the 350/460 and 460-only series
subjects.

Why American Litho. printed these 2 backs in this manner is a mystery to me. Do you guys have any ideas on this ?

Are you saying that from your research you think a card like Herzog will only be possible with a Red Hindu or AB 460 back?

[cfc1909]

that is correct Tim -not both.

[tedzan]

To date, Herzog (Boston) has not been found with either AB 460 or Red HINDU.

Anyhow, Herzog is a card in the 460-only series, and may be found with both AB 460 and Red HINDU
backs This "mutually exclusive rule" does not apply to the 48 cards in the 460-only series.

FYI....The 460-only series has its particular "mutually exclusive rule", that is between LENOX and Red
HINDU brands.

The Herzog card you are interested is found with a LENOX back....therefore, Herzog will NOT be found
with a Red HINDU back.



Jim....ole buddy....sorry to disagree with you.

I keep throwing in the 460 only cards-I did that the other day with the Crandall when we were talking about this rule. I have to watch that...

I have Herzog with Lenox and Cycle 460-no Red Hindu or AB 460.
