2 but I just started

Way late to the game....
 

I think my monster # would be 81.... I have a long way to go.

Not sure about most expensive and least expensive....I forgot what I've paid for many cards, I'll go with these- and I may have it wrong- I may have paid more for the Lajoie/with bat but for some reason I can't upload the picture anymore. And, going off of a bad memory, I think I may have paid around $29.00 for the White?

Cool thread-thanks-

Sincerely, Clayton

Still waiting for the right O'hara. Busily upgrading a little here and there.

Slowly building

Demmitt's Career
 

Nelson,

Did you know that Demmitt and O'Hara together collected a total of 7 hits after being traded to St. Louis teams in 1910? Interestingly both then played in Canada for several years as regulars, O'Hara in Toronto and Demmitt in Montreal. Demmitt made it back to bigs a couple times in later years, but O'Hara never did. I thought you might like your card even more knowing that Demmitt probably played more games in Montreal than anywhere else in his major and minor league career.

Thx verry interesting information. I hesited between ohara and demmitt and i choose to afford demmitt because i prefer the picture lol. Now with your info about mtl, this confirm my choice.

The demmitt is a beater but i love it its a Nice t206 big 6 card.

Thx

EDDIE collins last pick up

213

Nelson, I also collect photos of T206 players - here's a cyanotype of Demmitt while he was with Illinois, that I recently picked up.

Nice pic

I'm up to 71
 

I haven't posted in a long time so sorry for bumping an older thread, but I figured I'd throw my name into the ring too.

I am up to 71 on my T206 set none of which are any of the high $ cards.

All but 5 are raw, ungraded.

At this rate (I've been collecting them off and on for probably 22 years now), my grandchildren MAY be able to finish the set some day! :(

Okay, I'll play....145, which would be 5 bigger than Johnny. Sorry, Johnny - I didn't want to divulge my size until I was certain I was huger than you.
