Default T206 Doyle "NATL"

Do any "normal" collectors even own one of these?

Article says that this one sold for $414K in 2012 REA Auction.

Have any of you even held one of these in hand?

It is included in PSA Checklist of T206 Regular Issue????

I own one. I acquired it from Powell Miller. It now sits in a psa 3.5 flip, and I believe it is highest graded. I acquired it bc it was literally a once in a lifetime opportunity- these are impossible. I believe there are 8, maybe 9, known. No 524 card t206 set is complete without one and, thus, there can be no more than 8-9 complete t206 sets. I am very lucky to have been given a chance to acquire mine. This is the only one I have ever seen in person and/or held.

Ryan, The OP asked if any "normal" collectors have held or seen one in person. With you're insane collection, you don't fall in the "normal" category. (Sarcasm, of course)

Default It was 2004!

In February 2004 a friend called me and asked for advice on selling some "old cards" his father had acquired! We had known each other for many years but I had no prior knowledge he had any cards. He had known that I had sold cards for over 40 years and was asking for advice on how to "sell them quickly"! He told me that he had never collected cards but that in 1984 his father had given him 1/2 of an accumulation assembled between 1908 and 1915! Yes, I was excited. I think this qualifies as "a find"!

I discovered that my friend's father was born in 1900 and that as a child the father loved sports, particularly baseball. Unfortunately from 1908 to 1915 he was confined to a wheelchair much of the time but friends and family brought him cards so that he could vicariously enjoy baseball. My friend arrived at my home with about 600 of the 1375 cards given to him by his father. My friend claimed to have no knowledge of the value of the cards but he did point out one card that someone had told him was worth $16,500! It was the T206 Doyle "NATL"! I believe that at the time (February 2004) only 6 or 7 were known to exist.

There are scans of seven different examples and reported sales of eight
different examples. Two have changed holders the one you have that went
from an SGC 50 holder to the PSA 3.5 and the SGC A that went to a BVG 4
holder.

There was a sale in a house of cards auction to Larry Frisch and as far as I know there are no pictures of that one or the other Doyle he had.

I know of 3 ungraded Doyles. The 2 owned by the Frisch family and Richard Russell's card in his collection gifted to the University of Georgia. Is your ungraded example one of those?

There are 9 known Doyles, but only 8 possible sets because the UGA one won't be sold. I assume the Frisch family still has both their sets, Ryan has a set and Leon said another board member has a set with Doyle. It is unknown where the other 4 are and if they are in sets or not. As Ryan said, these don't come up for sale and I believe that only 2 of them have sold more than once.

The ungraded example I posted is from the Russell collection.

Hi rats60

You are correct, there are only 9 authentic Joe Doyle N. Y. Nat'L cards known.

Here's the scan of this card from Senator Russell's collection on display at the
Univ. of Georgia. I acquired this picture of it many years ago......




There are 3 other ones that I know of which are (or were) in collections of Charles Conlin, Joe Pelaez,
Keith Olberman. The latter two guys initially purchased FAKE Doyle cards (circa early 1990's).

Speaking about FAKE Doyle Nat'L cards.....there was one graded by PSA with a POLAR BEAR back as
"legitimate". As most of us know, this Doyle was only printed with PIEDMONT 350 backs.
What happened to this FAKE is anyone's guess.

The one that Ryan now has was the Conlin Doyle it was crossed over from the SGC 50 holder to the PSA 3.5 holder.

Wonderful provenance on your card, Ryan.

I met up with Joe Pelaez and some other collectors for lunch before a Chantilly show once. Joe casually reached into his backpack and pulled his Doyle Nat'l out, and passed it around the table. So I have at least held a slab. RIP Joe.

Several years ago I picked up this bargain box Joe Doyle. When I got home and looked at the card closer, the bottom of the card is scratched, right where the NAT'L would be on the rare card. I also see what appears to be some printing. Maybe some kid in 1909 knew this was a mistake and scratched it off? Maybe a modern collector tried to make this appear like the real deal? I shared this card on the board, and discovered that the back would be correct for the rare card, but all agreed it wasn't the real deal. My son in law put the damaged part under a microscope and took a picture.
