I know everyone has a bunch of great T206s... what if you could only pick one...
Please post a pic of your favorite T206.. or the one you are most proud to own..
Mine would have to be my chance ghost... a true internet treasure hunt..
X marks the spot.... on page 3 of google images search results for T206 ghosts.... or at least it did for me with this card..

This card was in the first group of three T206's I ever bought, and I bought them all raw.
I have thought about trading or selling, but I have an attachment because it was my first foray into prewar cards.

Tough choice between Wajo and Nap, but let's go with this one.

Chris....love the twin. Know you searched high and low for a ghost and getting that one was difficult.
Exhibitman...how much did that Johnson cost you 35 yrs ago? Under $20?
Eric... That miscut Cobb is ur trade mark. Any name on top Cobb makes me think of ur logo. Love the card.
Johnny.... Thought the cycle front was ur favorite. I said post ur fav card in ur collection ..not my fav card in ur collection. LoL
Jeff.. Ofcourse that's my fav t206 of all time. Nice card.

My Red Kleinow missing the red ink is at the top of my list but my Hal Chase Blue Portrait Piedmont Factory 42 is an extremely close second.

Nice cards everyone... I have a few favorites, but will give the nod to this one :
Wow, who would've thought there were so many T206 collectors on here... ;)
Great cards, everyone!

That Roy Ellam (the one I have is one of my favorites also) is actually a self-portrait of me as kid.

Stellar card, Jeremy. Let me know if it ever drops off your favorite list. I'll make you a big offer.

Only because it was the 1st T-206 I acquired, will probably never get rid of it.

I'll go $3600 because I know very little about the subject matter.

I looked quite awhile for a Duffy. When I saw this one I just had to have it. Having a Tolstoi back to boot, made it my favorite.
BTW; Darrin your Hooker and Reulbach cards are awesome!!

Nice WaJo!
I'm pretty partial to miscuts/double names too.
Heres my Cobb, a true keeper.

Nice cards everyone :)
This is one of the first two that I got back in 1979 from a shop in L.A. I had never seen an actual tobacco card before and completely flipped out. I traded half of my notebook for this and a red portrait Cobb.
