2 T206 Mysteries

I assume the individual on the Piedmont back is Bescher, Cincinnati from the reverse player name on the bottom of the card under the factory stamp.

Not sure of the other...

haha. I did not even notice his name at the bottom.

I always get the Wiltse (portrait with cap) and Schlei portraits confused...

I did an overlay of Chase Pink in Photoshop and it fit A+ for the front transfer. I'm pretty confident that's who it is.

The front overlay looks kind of like Jennings portrait.

Hmm, maybe B+ after all... very close though.

Erick is right that the actual card is Wiltse. I hadn't thought that the red image might be someone else. The ghost looks like Wiltse to me, but my eyes aren't great.

Here's Wiltse, consulting his ghostly advisor:

Oh... yep... Wiltse is a perfect fit in Photoshop. The front is the same card. Good call.

Thanks Trae!

These two were among about 500 raw T206's and T205's I just received - no other anomalies, but as many oddball T206's as I've owned, this Wiltse might be my favorite.
