1st....the 150 series cards of 5 of these NY Giants subjects exist with Brown HINDU backs; therefore, there's a high
probability that their 460 series counterparts may be found with Red HINDU backs.

2nd.....however, the following conditions dictate whether your NY Giants "sweater guys" were printed on Red HINDU
backs.

Bridwell.....................possible with LENOX....if so, no Red HINDU

Crandall.....................confirmed with Red HINDU

Doyle (bat)................confirmed with Red HINDU
Doyle (portrait)...........Red HINDU possible, unconfirmed with LENOX

McGraw (glove)...........confirmed with Red HINDU
McGraw (port-cap)......confirmed with LENOX, thus no Red HINDU

Murray (portrait)..........confirmed with LENOX, thus no Red HINDU

Schlei (portrait)...........possible with LENOX....if so, no Red HINDU

Seymour (portrait)........possible with LENOX....if so, no Red HINDU

Wiltse (port-cap).........confirmed with LENOX, thus no Red HINDU

I guess that pretty well cinches it....one Red HINDU, six LENOX's, and Bridwell is unknown.

Guys,

I thought there was a confirmed Cobb Red Hindu?

Was that card deemed rebacked or what?

Cobb Red Portrait/Red Hindu with Cobb Bat On/Brown Hindu would be another pair wouldn't it?

[tedzan]

Your two Ames cards with Brown HINDU back is a start on a possible "HINDU Trifecta". Unfortunately,
the Ames card in the 350/460 series has not been confirmed with a Red HINDU back, and, there is an
extremely low probability that such a front/back combo will eventually be found.

This is so, because this Ames exists with an American Beauty 460 back. As noted in a recent thread
AB 460 and Red HINDU backs are mutually exclusive with the cards in the 350/460 series.

Robert A, you asked........

" I thought there was a confirmed Cobb Red Hindu?

1st....are you referring to this recently posted Cobb of mine ?

Or, have you seen this Cobb with a Brown HINDU back elsewhere ? ?




If it is this one that you are referring to, then I will tell you that it is a "re-backed" card that I acquired about 10 years ago.
In the late 1990's a rash of re-backed T206 star cards appeared in the hobby. These cards were very professionally altered
and some even were graded by SGC and PSA. Two of the most "notorious" T206's were a Red Cobb with a DRUM back and a
Matty (portrait) with a Red HINDU back. The latter being an impossible front/back combo.

2nd....that brings me to the recent Red Cobb/Red HINDU card you alluded to. Frankly, I am very skeptical about this card as
being a authentic. I would like to see at least one or two more of these to feel confident that this front/back combo is real.


Thanks for raising this issue regarding the Cobb's. For some time, I have been doing some research on the lack of Cobb cards
with HINDU backs. And, I will be posting a thread on this subject soon.
