I enhanced my collecting of the T206/T205 sets with two inexpensive additions I would recommend to anyone:

1) Get the book Crazy '08, which I think you can normally get for around $5 on line with a little shopping for the hardback. It is a wonderful account of the 1908 season.

2) I started replaying the 1908 APBA season...I chose it mainly because of the book and the availability of the set, but it has virtually all the players in the T205/206 sets.

It really brings the Monster to life....

Couldn't agree more. Great book and APBA does provide incite into the types of players these guys were.
