T205 Downey backs

Josh I will agree that the Brown 205 w/green AB is probably not legit. Would not make sense for that one card and the fact it is a Drum backed card also makes it more unlikely to be plausible. I have had over 5 AB browns and seen many more, but not the green one. If legit it would be a very unusual card, possibly a printers scrap
