Description: 1911 T3 Turkey Red collection of (30) advertising back cards. Impressive collection represents more than half of T3s which are known to be found with the desirable advertising back. It was long thought that only (49) cards were issued in this format but the checklist now numbers (52) subjects with those most recently discovered being exceedingly rare (though it should be noted that all ad backs are considered harder to find than their checklist back counterparts). In general the cards within the offered group have outstanding eye appeal which far exceeds technical grade. Includes Ames (VG), Bescher (GD/VG), Bransfield (VG), Bridwell (VG/EX-EX), Coveleski (VG/EX), Criger (VG small mark on front), Downey (GD/VG), Dygert (VG), Fromme (VG), Gibson (GD/VG), Graham (GD/VG, ink mark on back), Groom (VG/EX), Hoblitzell (VG, discoloration on front), Hofman (VG-VG/EX), Konetchy (VG/EX), Kling (color added), Lobert (VG), Lord (VG/EX), Manning (VG-VG/EX), Moran (VG), Niles (VG/EX-EX), Paskert "Cin. And Phila." (PR), Schmidt (VG), Schulte (GD/VG), Smith (GD/VG), Stone (VG/EX), Street (touch of color added at corners, otherwise VG/EX), Thomas (VG/EX), Tenney "N.Y. And Boston" (GD/VG), and Wilson (VG): Avg. VGEstimated Price Range: ($5,000-$7,500)
