What major league players appear solely in the t206 series?
 

Searched T206 Museum, T206 Guide, T206 Society, T206 Gallery, T206 Resource, websites without success. Is there such a list?

T206
 

Happy Smith is one... I think.

What major league players appear solely in the t206 series?-

One would think there has to be some players (maybe smith is as stated) but I know of no list.

.

I bet Ted Z knows this off the top of his head. I sure don't have such a list.

But not fair as he is the only member (and maybe Jerry S. :)) to collect them out of their packs.

That's a stretch Leon - but Goudeys possibly.

Looks like I'm not going to get to collect an 'only card' subset of T206s. Doing the research would be excessive. I've gone through such an ordeal with the W600s and found 75 players have their only card in that set.

I was curious as well so I spent about an hour or so going over my database and at least initially I can throw out these names. It may be that some appear on some obscure issues (like team issued RPPC or something along those lines but I don't see any other major issues). On my database I don't include T5's and other issues where not all cards have been confirmed to exist so there may be some on sets like that...

A preliminary list for Jerry:

Harry Armbruster
Harry Arndt (only other is W600-not sure if confirmed)
Jack Bastian
Peter Cassidy
Josh Clarke (Fred Clarke's younger brother)
Cadwallader Coles
Bill Cranston (also in T213-1 but isn't that the same set :D)
Paul Davidson
Slow Joe Doyle (does have W600-not sure if confirmed)
Lou Fiene
James "Steamer" Flanagan
Bob Hall
Bill Hallman (does have (2 diff) W600-not sure if confirmed)
Jack Hannifin
Jack Hayden
J. Ross Helms (Helm on front)
John Kiernan
Bill Lattimore
John McAleese
Charles B. Miller (Dallas) -not much background on him, there may be another card of him
Peter O'Brien (does have (3 diff) W600-not sure if confirmed)
William O'Neil(l)
Archie Persons (also in T213-1)
Phillip Poland
Lee Quillin
Harry Sentz (misspelled "LENTZ in T206)-(also in T213-1)
Woody Thornton (also in T213-1)
Foley White
William "Lucky" Wright

Perhaps it's not clear to me - is OP asking about T206s who played in the major leagues who don't have other cards, or do the players need to be shown on their T206 as being in the major leagues?

For instance, Bill Hallman, who did have a few cups of coffee in MLB, is shown in his T206 as part of the minor league Kansas City Blues team

My list above is not exclusive to those that have played in the Major Leagues but all players depicted in the T206 set. It wouldn’t be a lot of work to extrapolate which players from the list had Major League experience and/or if they are depicted with a Major League team on the card.

Lucky Wright also played in the Major Leagues for the 1909 Indians

Lou Fiene! So spectacularly uninteresting — a grand total of 49 career games — that they made TWO versions of his card! More miraculous is that someone managed to get him to sign them...
