Hello everyone,
I casually started a low grade Walter Johnson (pitching) T206 backs collection a couple years ago. I am not ready to start on the tough ones yet, but I heard tell a couple weeks ago that the Broad Leaf 460 is a PSA 7. Can you folks confirm, and which pose is it? Does anyone happen to have a scan of this one or know a price history?
Thanks for the help in advance,

It's the pitching pose and I think it's an SGC 60 but
I am not 100% on that. It's been a month or so since I
saw it.

There is an SGC 60 BL 460 Johnson pitching pose.

If you don't mind me asking.....which backs do you already have?

Good luck on your conquest.

Maybe Gary N can chime in, since it's his card.

I have seen the Broad Leaf 460 card of Johnson. I do not recall what grade it was, since I'm not into graded cards.
Here is a list of all the known backs of this Johnson card.......

Thanks to all. Thanks for the checklist Ted, you just saved me me a ton of research. I will get a page up once I get a couple worth looking at.
Thanks again

Ted,
I have also seen a couple Old Mill backs. I had one back in the mid 1990's and sold it at the Pitt. show.
Thanks for the list!

Had these for nearly 30 years:

Portrait: Sweet Caporal 150 factory 649 overprint w/plain bar
Ready To Pitch: Sweet Caporal 460 Factory 42 overprint w/ornate bar

Sic Gorgiamus Allos Subjectatos Nunc

The 460 BL sold in Mastro on 12/9/05

Ted and I got a look at the Johnson BL 460 at the last Reading show.
SGC 60!

The owner of the BL 460 Johnson is an occasional poster on this board and one of the nicest guys in the hobby. Maybe he will pop in here.

I do have the Johnson pitching pose and it is graded 60 by SGC
I have tried to post pictures here before with no luck, but I can
forward you a scan of it if you want me to.

if you will send me scan(s) I will post for you...Hope to see you at the National again....regards

I would like to thank Gary for the scans and everyone else for the information that has been offered up. That is one beautiful BL 460. Does anyone know if the head count on the Drum is a one of also?
Thanks
