Recently there was a ~950 card lot of T206s auctioned off all with the Howe McCormick back stamp. I used to have a Howe McCormick stamp, but I think I sold or traded it to the guy on Net54 (Howe Hunter) who was trying to re-assemble Howe's collection.
Many of these 950 cards are now showing up on eBay. So, I went ahead and grabbed a T206 Birdie Cree with Old Mill back and the Howe stamp. The stamp is pretty bold and easy to read, plus this one adds another off back and helps with my attempt to build a set of mostly off backs.
There are some Southern Leaguers and HOFers with the Howe stamp on eBay too. I may try to pick up one or two of those as well. I only need two more cards to reach my 2022 goal of picking up 24 T206s for the year! If I reach that goal, that will be the most T206s I've ever picked up in one year. I started collecting T206s back in the early 1990's and am now at 130 cards for my set. I've been at this for so long, but am trying hard to make steady progress as I push for a 520 set... maybe someday I'll be able to complete the entire 524 card set too!
