Default T205 Hoblitzell - No Stats & More

With STRONG encouragement from my wife, I FINALLY landed MY "White Whale" - the T205 Hoblitzell - No Stats, paying roughly TWICE what my folks paid for their home!

God Rest Their Souls - they would NOT have approved!

Anyway, my wife asked me WHY is that card so rare.

All I could say was "Uhhhh, because...."

After all these years, is there a BETTER answer than that????

In addition, I'm looking for a T205 Hoblitzell - "One L" with a basic Piedmont 25 reverse. Does THAT card exist???

Good for you. It’s my last card for a complete T205 master set.

I don't know that much about T205s but I don't think the one L exists in a
Piedmont back. And congrats on the no stats.

Me too. I imagine there's quite a few of us in that club.

Hey Greg,
Congrats on the Hobby-no stats. The simple answer to your wife's question is that it was printed only with the Hassan 30 reverse. As for the one "L" variant, I don't recollect seeing it with any back other than the Sweet Caporal red. Others are far more knowledgeable on T205 than I and may have better information. I'm pretty sure you won't find it with a Piedmont 25 reverse. Happy Hunting!
