Auction #7 - February 2021
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/28/2021
The T59 Flags of All Nations series is a 200 card set that was issued in series of (50) cards by a number of manufacturers with what has been recognized as about 40 different backs. Studies have been done suggesting that there are over 7500 front/back combinations by which to collect the T59 series and there are people who are attempting to collect them that way. I'm not sure how this compares to the T206 baseball number of back combinations but it has to be close if not more.
This lot is for a group of (148) T59 flag cards with mixed backs. The bulk of the cards are easier Sweet Caporal and Recruit backs but the lot does include a group of (46) Jack Rose cigarettes and (6) of the very tough Hustler cards as well as some other 1's and 2's of tough backs (as shown). The cards are largely in VG to EX condition with just a few in lower grade. This is a nice lot for the variation collector of T59's.
