Red Sox Mini Project complete...

jay1065 · May 5, 2009

As a side project for my Sox type collection, I have been trying to pick up a unique back for each of the twelve Red Sox cards in the T206 set. Today's arrival (Jake Stahl, Glove Shows variation / Sweet Cap 350 Factory 25 back) finished the project:

I hate to be the one to tell you this but I think you are missing one back. DRUM.

I'd love to get a Drum...and Uzit! Someday

.

There are quite a few other backs that are in the Sox set, as well. The Sox set has 34 possible back types, I believe (33 if you don't include blank-backs.) The image above only shows one for each card in the basic team set (12.) I have others (14 different backs in total,) as well, that I could mix in.

Current back types in hand:

American Beauty (no Frame) - Series 350 - Fact. 25 - District 2 - State VA
Cycle - Series 350 - Fact. 25 - District 2 - State VA
El Principe De Gales - Fact. 17 - District 2 - State VA
Piedmont - Series 150 - Fact. 25 - District 2 - State VA

Nice job and congrats! I like Polar Bear backs because of the bold blue. The Cicotte looks like a little piece of art. I think the T206 set is by far the nicest of the tobacco and caramel releases because the colors and backgrounds are so much nicer than the others.

Thanks! PB backs are my favorite. Their design definitely makes them stand out from the rest.

Speaking of Polar Bear, I noticed someone picked up a PB Wagner.

Very nice Jay!! I love T206 and if $$ were no object would look to add to the 3 that I own (all John McGraw). Keep up the great collection!!
