Bad News...

I've emailed Greg Kohn (UD guy who was on the Beckett boards) a couple time since he left said boards, for the most part talking about upcoming products. While they've been benign, I just heard this---UD is in the process of getting a PSA 2 T206 Wagner for an upcoming product to cut up as "memorabilia". Only 25 or so cards are known, and one is headed to the chopping block
The design is fairly similar to the Topps T206 release, so this is probably trying (like Goudey) to cut into Topps' Heritage/A&G/Turkey red niche. From what I understand, however, a product won't be designed around it but it incorporated into another, such as Legendary Cuts.
Concept card:

The only good news is that the deal for a card is not finalized yet (I have no idea where they are at---the above is a design, not a scan). Even that, however, isn't great---there's at least one (the one the Football HOF Rookie guy has) potentially for sale.
This sucks big time.

Looking for Jonny Gomes cards, especially Triple Threads and printing plates. Will consider all cards, though. Got something? Contact me at c_u_l_1@yahoo.com

That's the most awesomest card I've ever seen! I can only imagine the Superfractor version!
Sick!

<< <i>The subhead of the article read: "He's a pitcher, part yogi and part recluse. Impressively liberated from our opulent life-style, Sidd's deciding about yoga —and his future in baseball." The first letters of these words spell out "Happy April Fools Day." >>
Funny stuff!!
