Are the cards never made cards or existed but are not known at present cards?

[sflayank]

plaks and punchouts were probably never made
the num num kennedy with tab was made..are there any left i dont know
the other stuff i have no idea if they were made if they exist or what
hoping to get proof of their existence here

[sflayank]

well 126 views so far and noone has one of these cards or even a scan of one?

Larry---my experience is consistent with yours on the 67 Punch Outs, the 68 Plaks, the 62 Fleer red Logos and the 69 3D Fleer Caps. If you are right, I am done with those. I do not do the others from your list.

By the way, I assume you would include the 62 Sievers as an Athletic in the myth category as well

hi
i didnt even realize sievers athletic stamp was listed in the book
i have my doubts on that one too...I have to ask bob lemke where some of these came from
when i send him new additions i almost always send him a scan
so im curious how these items get in there

I've collected Num Nums for years, and though I've never seen a Kennedy with tab, two friends in the hobby who I have tremendous respect for each have told me they've seen one. Based on that, I believe there's at least one (or two) out there.

Absolutely no way on the '40 Reds Harry Hartman W711-2 Debt of Gratitude card. I believe Bob said it was being dropped from the catalog as well.

Many of the erroneously listed cards come from old checklists and collectors' recollections that were "canonized" as the checklisting process was under way in pre-computer days. Some resulted from assumptions about the content of certain sets where the assumed qualifier was dropped. Others result from old analyses that have been disproved over time through new research. A great example is the dating on the U.S. Caramel set, which had long been given as a particular year set until collectors started analyzing the card backs and realized that the date had to be wrong. The 1925 Exhibit Champions Babe Ruth was listed as a 1932 issue in conjunction with the World's Fair until analysis of the rest of the set established that it was really a 1925 issue. The 1925-31 PC Back Exhibit set was listed as 1926-29 for a long time until analysis of the player team designations established that some of the cards were 1930-1931 issues and others were very likely 1925 issues. Even T206 was given as a 1910 set for a long time until researchers established a multi-year issue sequence over the various series.

Agree with others on the 67 Punch Outs

It's obviously pre-war but how about the W600 Branch Rickey?
