This obviously is a reprint of some sort. I don't know the player (no first name), so hoping someone has some knowledge of what this is and if it's cataloged on TCDB.

I might be mistaken, but I think these came from Hygrade sometime in the 80's. I have some like this or similar and think its been mentioned on here a few years ago. ------------------------------- Royal Card Review is my blog if you feel like checking it out, thanks if you do!- royalcardreview.blogspot.com/ In the process of updating my collection so don't trust any of my lists right now.

Roughly 1987 +/- 0 years if my memory* serves me right. * - My memory from about 30 seconds ago when I clicked on C2Cigars link jupiterhill wrote: I might be mistaken, but I think these came from Hygrade sometime in the 80's.

Oops. Well at least I was in the ballpark. I honestly thought there were more than just what is listed, but I think the only ones I have/had are the Wagner 206's. ------------------------------- Royal Card Review is my blog if you feel like checking it out, thanks if you do!- royalcardreview.blogspot.com/ In the process of updating my collection so don't trust any of my lists right now.

I've had the Ty Cobb T206 insert for years and didn't know what it was until I saw this thread. I thought it was some random Broader card. Thanks for solving my mystery. ------------------------------- Greg
