Congrats Jeremy. Glad I could help a little bit....and for the record, the person I got you in contact with is a member here but doesn't post. He does read the board though and is a fine gentleman I have had the pleasure of knowing for several years....as well as I have been to his house to see a really nice old school collection. Nice OBs you showed, by the way!!

Thanks Leon ! (I was able to peruse this board members want list and my jaw dropped to the floor with what he has been able to accomplish since the mid 70's. Old school indeed. Tremendous.)

Congrats Jeremy! You got there quickly after you scored that big group. Hit me up if you still have any doubles.

Thanks Robert, Jason, and Bob ! Hope to get a little website together soon to display these along with some other material. I am still baffled about the actual 20 players that have printing errors. We know that most likely there will not be another player discovered with a range of 3-9 examples known of the 20 players each. What baffles me was how these players were positioned together on a sheet. Only 1 Galveston, 2 Houston, 2 Oklahoma, 6 Waco, and 9 San Antonio players with color error. With the player pattern of 20 players, it's hard to visualize why it was these 20 that were positioned on the sheet to get the color error and then again, and again. Does this lend itself to being just a few sheets (or just 1 sheet?) with the same player horizontally across the sheet ? We know from a few examples T210's had different players vertically, so perhaps a sheet had 10-20 examples across and the color error hit the same spots on a few sheets, or maybe it was more simple than that...

For the sheet experts out there, is it possible to only have 20 players on 1 sheet or is that not likely due to too being to small ? Perhaps we need to study the names of the players for a clue on the pattern? I am trying to figure out why would it be these 20 players with a smattering from 5 of the 8 teams in the series.

Just thinking out loud. I will hang up and listen...
