Revisiting the 150-only Series.....and, let's see your cards
I have been asked about the T206 cards of Mike "Doc" Powers. His cards are found only with 150 backs and brown HINDU.
Mike Powers was the preferred battery mate of Eddie Plank. Unfortunately, on Opening Day of Shibe Park (April 12, 1909) in Philadelphia, Mike Powers was injured on the field. In the hospital, the doctors discovered he had serious intestinal sys- tem problems. Mike passed away 2 weeks later. Powers is a 150/350 series subject. American Lithographic stopped printing his card due to his untimely death; therefore, he was not printed with any 350 series backs. Pat Romolo's (Pat R.) extensive analysis of T206 cards which have printed "scratch" marks on their Piedmont backs reveals that Powers was printed on a sheet with the other 150/350 subjects. TED Z . |
