Hi Johnny-

I use Jim R.'s scarcity list, being that he knows the difficulty of these backs firsthand far more than I do. I have never owned one myself (but it is on the list ) and I also don't see them become available too often (hardly ever actually).

This is one of those T206's I'd gladly accept the "A" grade on because on a true blank back T206 that's all you'd get........

It would be interesting to do a survey (in hoping everyone would participate- whether private or public) like the ones TedZ and Tim did, to see what's actually out there.

I wish you the best Johnny, and hope you can get your hands on one (or more )

Sincerely, Clayton

I agree with Jim R's ranking.....

At the peak of my blank back collecting...I think that I had about 10 T206s .. and years ago it was quite easy to find them for $250 a pop.

Times have changed and suddenly blank backs have become valuable and highly sought after. But that does not change the fact that they are simply not that scarce.

Now T205 blank backs....that's a different story!

JAMIE!!

THAT'S THE CARD!!you know who to sell that one to.... thanx again for sharing...

SCOTT!!was waiting to hear from you or your dad.....Jim's list is almost there, just broadleafs are not as scarce as blank backs imo....think about when you where in your height collecting blanks(a few years ago??), how more common the tough backs were to spot and as cheap as a song!!(hindu, 50 dollar range, broadleaf 140, carolina 130,ect..)....everything is relative...you, your dad, Jim where collecting backs before me, but i was tracking them...

btw...hows the family??

Peace
