Default T206 AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 sub-set survey....MISSION COMPLETE

In response to recent requests, I'm reprising the American Beauty 460 info I have gleaned from trying to complete this very tough
T206 sub-set.


[linked image]


There are 103 possible T206's that could've been printed with the American Beauty 460 back. However, there are always those tricky
NO-PRINTS that keep you guessing. After 4 years of searching for AB 460 cards, it appears to me that approximately 30 subjects are
NO-PRINTS. This of course is subject to revision, if additional AB 460's are found.

The AB 460 back has a Factory 42 (Durham, North Carolina) identification. These cards were issued near the end of the T206 produc-
tion run in early 1911. So, I thought it would be cool to collect this T206 sub-set.....and definitely challenging. Currently, I have 62 of
these cards, and still searching.


Listed here are the 67 confirmed AB 460 cards. The 350/460 Series subjects are listed first; and, the 460-only Series subjects follow.....


350/460 Series..................27 cards

Ames (hands over head)
Baker
Berger
Bradley (bat)
Burch (fielding)
Cobb (bat off)
Conroy (bat)
Crawford (bat)
Jennings (one hand)
Jennings (two hands)
Jordan (bat)
Lajoie (bat)
Lake (no ball)
Leach (cap)
Leifield (bat)
Manning (pitching)
McQuillan (bat)
Mullin (bat)
Pelty (vertical)
Pfeister (throwing)
Steinfeldt (bat)
Tinker (bat off)
Wagner (bat on right)
Willetts
Willis (bat)
Wilhelm (bat)
Wiltse (pitching)


460-only Series..................40 cards

Abbaticcio (blue sleeves)
Ball (Cleveland)
Bergen (catching)
Bridwell (cap)
Camnitz (arms at side)
Camnitz (arms up)
Chance (bat)
Chase (Trophy)
Crandall (cap)
Devore
Doyle (portrait)
Duffy
Ford
Gandil
Geyer
Howell (hands at waist)
Hummell
Lake (with ball)
Latham
Marquard (follow thru)
McGraw (glove at hip)
Meyers
Needham
Oldring (bat)
Overall (blue sky)
Payne
Pfeffer
Schaefer (Washington)
Schulte (back view)
Schlei (portrait)
Schlei (bat)
Seymour (portrait)
Sheckard (glove)
F. Smith (Chicago & Boston)
H. Smith (Brooklyn)
Stovall (bat)
Tannehill (Chicago)
Tinker (bat on)
Wheat
Wiltse (portrait w/cap)


If anyone on Net54 has additional AB 460 cards that are not on this list of 67 cards, please chime in and show or tell us of your AB 460's.

Thanks very much,

You may be interested in this....the same day (in another thread) when you asked about the AB 460 list,
a Net54 reader emailed me requesting the same.

Anyhow, are you tempted to try collecting the AB 460 cards ?

Best regards,

Hey Ted,

I don't think I have the patience. I am collecting the HOFers and trying to get as many different backs as I can. I have the Duffy AB 460. The only other one I came close on was a McGraw glove SGC 10 on eBay earlier this year that I think you outbid me on. I am currently looking for an AB 350 frame HOFer.

Good luck on this subset -- it's tough.

David R.

You are correct, I won that AB 460 card of McGraw. Of course, I did not know that I was bidding against you.

The "cryptic" bidders ID is one of ebay's features that ticks me off. I'd like to know who the other bidders are.

Default T206 American Beauty 460 sub-set survey

I found my Doc White (pitching) with an American Beauty 460 back.

So, that brings us to a grand total of 71 confirmed American Beauty 460 cards.

And, this brings my AB 460 set's total to 63 cards.

A Net54 reader has emailed me with a Bell (pitching) with an AB 460 back.

This input increases the confirmed tally to 72 cards. I will be updating this survey later today.

Default T206 American Beauty 460 sub-set survey......UPDATED

WOW....since I have reprised this survey, there have been 7 new inputs in a little over a day. However small that might
sound, one has to appreciate that 66 confirmed AB 460 cards stood for over 4 years; and, now we have 73 confirmed.

Eventually, I expect that 47 cards in the 460-only series will be confirmed....the one exception will be Kleinow (Boston).

However, I would be surprised if many more cards beyond the current 30 from the 350/460 series were to be confirmed.

Default T206 American Beauty 460 sub-set survey

Thanks to a Net54 reader of this thread, I have added 4 more cards to my AB 460 sub-set. Now, I have 66 cards,
and still searching.
My experience indicates that most of the tougher AB 460 cards are from the 350/460 series....e.g. Lajoie, Leach,
Wilhelm, Doc White, etc..
And, some of the tougher ones from the 460-only series are Duffy, Needham, Smith (Chi & Bos), Wheat, etc..


[linked image]



OK, we have confirmed 73 cards with the AB 460 back. Now is not the time to surrender to the Monster....let's see
how many more of the remaining 30 subjects can be confirmed ?

Thanks again for your participation in this T206 survey.

Default T206 American Beauty 460 sub-set survey

Just a reminder....while these 6 super-prints can be found with as many as 24 different T206 backs....
they were NOT printed with the American Beauty 460 back.

Fair warning....if you find any one of these 6 with an AB 460 back....it is a FAKE !


[linked image]

Now, you guys are making me sound like a "genius", when I said in my initial post here that......

" There are 103 possible T206's that could've been printed with the American Beauty 460 back. However,
there are always those tricky NO-PRINTS that keep you guessing. After 4 years of searching for AB 460
cards, it appears to me that approximately 30 subjects are NO-PRINTS. "

OK, we have confirmed 73 cards with the AB 460 back. So surprise-surprise, that does leave us with 30
cards.....and am I a genius ?......I say NO.
Just a lucky guess, or perhaps an educated guess. In any event, I think there are more AB 460 cards to
be discovered. So, let's see how many more of the remaining 30 subjects you guys can confirm ?

Thanks again for your participation in this T206 survey.

Hi Ted,

I was curious and maybe this has been covered but I have a Seymour throwing 350 no frame. Are there 350 and 460 versions with no frame. The only card I have ever had with 350 and 460 backs are the Manning pitching, I still own the 460 but don't remember if the 350 was framed or not.

1st......Re..Seymour (throwing) has not yet been confirmed with an AB 460.

2nd......Your Manning (pitching) would have been an AB 350 No Frame (NF).


Lee

To my knowledge there are only 20 of the 55 cards from the 350/460 series
that are found with both the AB 350NF and AB 460NF backs. I will list them
in a subsequent post.

Default T206 American Beauty 460 sub-set survey

As requested......

All T206's from the 350/460 series with American Beauty backs were printed without the stylized FRAME
that is found on the American Beauty (AB) cards in the 350-only series. Of the 55 cards in the 350/460
series, some are found with AB 350....some with AB 460....and, 18 subjects are confirmed with both the
AB 350 and AB 460 backs. Those 18 are listed here.


...................Fall/Winter 1910............................Spring 1911

[linked image]
...................Factory 25, VA............................Factory 42, N.C.


Here are the 18 - T206's that have been confirmed with both of the No Frame American Beauty backs.

Burch (fielding)
Conroy (bat)
Crawford (bat)
Jennings (two hands)
Jordan (bat)
Lake (no ball)
Leifield (bat)
Manning (pitching)
McQuillan (bat)
Mullin (bat)
Pelty (vertical)
Pfeister (throwing)
Steinfeldt (bat)
Wagner (bat/right)
Wilhelm (bat)
Willetts
Willis (bat)
Wiltse (pitching)


If anyone here has any new AB inputs that we can add to this survey, please show or tell us. Check-out
your T206's and compare them with the lists posted in this thread.

Thanks much.

Default T206 American Beauty 460 sub-set survey

One T206 guy with an American Beauty 350 (no frame) back, that you wont find with an American Beauty 460 back, is
Simon Nichols (with bat). Although, this card is classified as a 350-only subject, it was actually intended as a 350/460
candidate. My theory is.....that American Lithographic did not extend this card into the 460 series since Nichols retired
from the major leagues just prior to the release of the 460 series cards.

If someone here has an alternative explanation for this T206 front/back anomaly, please present it ?

Default T206 AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 vs Red HINDU exclusivity

A Net54 reader emailed me with a possible sighting of a CYoung (glove) with an AB 460 back. At this point, I cannot
accept it as a confirmed input until I see it, or a 2nd one is reported. This reminds me to introduce the following rule.

Subjects in the 350/460 series that have been confirmed with Red HINDU backs are NOT found with AB 460 backs......
these 2 backs are mutually exclusive in this series of 55 cards (Note, there may be one or two exceptions to this rule).

You are welcome to prove me wrong regarding this "mutual exclusivity" rule......or, reinforce this rule. Either way, have

OK, you Jazz aficiandos....what great Jazz artist would encore his riff with the lyrics...."one more once" ?

Default T206 AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 vs Red HINDU exclusivity

Therefore, if my above analysis is correct, we should expect to eventually find the following 5 cards with AMERICAN
BEAUTY 460 backs.....if we do not first find them with Red HINDU backs.

My experience shows that the AB 460 back is very underrated. It is much scarcer than most T206 collectors realize.
Further reinforcement of this fact is, that no AMERICAN BEAUTY (Factory 42) cigarette packs have been found.

These 5 could possibly be No Prints. On the other hand, perhaps someone on Net54 (or a reader of Net54) may just
surprise us by reporting any one of these 5 with an AB 460 back ?

Thanks every one for your efforts in these type of surveys.

Indeed, Darren is a cool dude regarding all aspects of "The Monster".

He's the guy who convinced me some years ago that the 1910 COUPON cards are indeed T206's.
Thanks Darren.

Gee, what happened to the Net54 "Jazz buffs" ?

I would of thought Barry S, or Jodi B, or any one else, would have already answered my Trivia question in post #21 ?

I too could be convinced if they were at least on the same kind of paper stock, which they aren't. They are 100% different than ANY other T206 stock. That, combined with Burdick's designation, is proof enough (for me) that T213-1 should never ever be considered a T206.....but this is a debate that will go on for a long time...All in fun...best regards

Ted- I hadn't looked at this thread in a while. If I did I would have told you Count Basie, as others have.

Did you find the Home Run Baker with red Hindu back? It was my November 16, 2006 auction, lot #50.

Default paper stock?

While I'm not totally disagreeing with you, Leon...if paper stock were the smoking gun...then maybe e97 b/w's/proofs shouldn't even be classified as e97's...they should be a totally separate issue...e-unc? I'm sure there are others. There will always be the t213-1/t206 debate...among others...hell...we need issues to bicker about...if everything were known...we'd have nothing to talk about?

Hey Pete
For the record no one that has any hobby experience considers the E97's as proofs. It's absurd to think they are, imo. Since they have the same exact poses I consider them a subset of E97, maybe E97-2. I also think they could actually be a whole different set but since there is precedence in other sets (such as E254 "proofs") I leave them as E97. For the record my feelings on E254 are the same as E97. Both of the E sets that are "proofs" have blank backs. The T213-1 set has a different back, though the caligraphy is similar to other of T206, and I just can't make that leap. There is no Coupon T206 and, if I am not mistaking, the factory and district are different than any other also. (I haven't looked that up though) It's a good debate......and your are right. Without these nuances what would we talk about?

I believe someone on here was selling a Baker with a Red Hindu back maybe 5-6 months ago....might be the same one Barry is referencing.

Anyway, I just wanted to drop in and say thanks to Ted for another interesting thread. There is so much information on this set, and it is nice to read about it little by little.

I don't have anything to contribute to this thread, as I do not own any AB backs yet. 'Tis my goal for the first of the year though.

Dave- there was an extensive article about those recordings in this past Sunday's New York Times. They sound like classic performances.

Gee, I hijacked my own thread with the Jazz trivia. Now, let's switch this AB 460 train back onto the main track.

There is no doubt about Baker with a Red HINDU back, so now I'm checking out Baker with an AB 460 back.

Default T206 AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 vs Red HINDU exclusivity

I'm reprising this thread to correct the entry of Home Run Baker. This card indeed exists with a Red HINDU back. Therefore, I was skeptical of
previous data that showed it with an AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 back. Upon further investigation, I found out that Baker has only been confirmed
with an AB 350 back....and, not an AB 460 back.

Here is the new UPDATED list....we are back to 70 confirmed AB 460 subjects......


[linked image]



350/460 Series..................27 cards

Ames (hands over head)
Berger
Bradley (bat)
Burch (fielding)
Cobb (bat off)
Conroy (bat)
Crawford (bat)
Jennings (one hand)
Jennings (two hands)
Jordan (bat)
Lajoie (bat)
Lake (no ball)
Leach (cap)
Leifield (bat)
Manning (pitching)
McQuillan (bat)
Mullin (bat)
Pelty (vertical)
Pfeister (throwing)
Steinfeldt (bat)
Tinker (bat off)
Wagner (bat on right)
Doc White (pitching)
Willetts
Willis (bat)
Wilhelm (bat)
Wiltse (pitching)


460-only Series..................43 cards

Abbaticcio (blue sleeves)
Ball (Cleveland)
Bell (pitching)
Bescher (arms above)
Bergen (catching)
Bridwell (cap)
Camnitz (arms at side)
Camnitz (arms up)
Chance (bat)
Chase (Trophy)
Crandall (cap)
Devore
Doyle (portrait)
Duffy
Ford
Gandil
Geyer
Howell (hands at waist)
Hummell
Lake (with ball)
Latham
Marquard (follow thru)
McGraw (portrait-cap)
McGraw (glove at hip)
Meyers
Needham
Oldring (bat)
Overall (blue sky)
Payne
Pfeffer
Schaefer (Washington)
Schulte (back view)
Schlei (portrait)
Schlei (bat)
Seymour (portrait)
Sheckard (glove)
F. Smith (Chicago & Boston)
H. Smith (Brooklyn)
Stovall (bat)
Tannehill (Chicago)
Tinker (bat on)
Wheat
Wiltse (portrait w/cap)


If anyone on Net54 has any AB 460 cards that are not listed here, please show or tell us about them.


Thanks much

TED Z

Default T206 AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 vs Red HINDU exclusivity

[linked image]


By applying the AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 vs Red HINDU "mutually exclusive rule", we have narrowed down the
number of cards still needed to be confirmed with the AB 460 back to these 10 cards......

Dougherty (arm in air)
Elberfeld (Wash-fielding)
Frill
Herzog
McIntyre (Brooklyn & Chi)
Merkle (throwing)
Murphy (bat)
Murray (portrait)
Overall (yellow sky)
Reulbach (no glove)


Please check out your T206's to see if you have any of these with an AB 460 back.

Thanks,

Ted,

that list of ten is very similar to my list of Cycle 460s getting narrowed down. I do not believe I have have seen of known of more than 2 of each of the Cycle 460 copies of those 10 ABs listed. Any chance that some of these cards got double printed or 2 different series?
