Default T212 proof

I would have thought at least one person would mention the T212-1 proof strip? It's the only Obak proof I have ever seen. But if you guys have to see T206's then here ya go...my only one (and shown for the thousandth time but still...)

ps....not for sale yet Dan Co.......

Leon,

Just put the Matty up for sale already so I can buy it!

You're like me with my dog teasing him with beggin strips with that card I'm too stupid to know it's just out of reach because you're not selling. But each time I'm on my hind legs looking up at you when that gets posted.

Cheers,

John

P.S. The Obak strip is insane and so cool!

Default T206 proofs

Hello All!!

Great thread Leon......your Matty proof i never get sick of looking at, and the "rosetta" stone of a multi-print back i also never get sick of looking at...

anyway, sad to say i have no "official" t206 proofs, only some fine scraps
i know they all have the "cross-hatches" in the borders and are blank backed, so i have none to officially meet that standard(yet), but still looking
i do beleive i have some very neat scraps where appears that they were "experimenting" with the name at the top border like some of the t206 ads suggest



who won the Jacklitsch in goodwin???!! i made a good ol' college try

going to post some i beleive are "pre-production"....and "experiments"..


Peace

Johnny

Not sure. I was the underbidder.

Jacklitsch is one of the few subjects from the T206 set for which there is more than one proof card confirmed. The other one is nicer.

I have a Bransfield T206 proof -- don't have the scan handy and am typing from an airplane :-)

Leon, that is an awesome pickup. As for the SL proofs, what is the back story to them.
When did they come up for auction?
Where did they come from?

Default Matty & Obak Proof Strip...

Leon,

The Matty Proof speaks for itself - Gorgeous card that I never get sick of looking at, and the strip to me is incredible in its own right, as you get possibly the only proof out there, but you get the whole strip as a bonus baby... You always seem to land the cool stuff ! I know, I know... You were born that way.

JJ

Leon, great proof sheet that I too have admired. The best thing about it (which isn't obvious when you first see it) is that all the images are reversed--most obvious with the "SF" on the jersey!

This is either a "Proof" (prototype), or a new set?? (R340?)

Ive shown it a few times, but maybe some of you havent seen it yet or even have one. Ive never seen another.



differences from the common R309-1...
nearly 1/2" wider and taller because of extra green border
green name plaque instead of gold
much clearer image quality and contrast
different easel on back
hole punch (smaller than a normal hole punch and cleanly cut through thick stock)



1st image is a common R309-1, the second image is what was described as a proof of the R309-1 (sold in 2005 REA)


If anyone has info or seen another please let me know.
