19th Century Players in T206
I was trying to figure out which prominent 19th century players are in T206. Here is what I've come up with so far. I realize I may be missing some lesser known guys, but I think these are all of the major ones. Let me know if I'm missing any.
Thanks! Cy Young Hughie Jennings Hugh Duffy Jake Beckley Joe Kelley Willie Keeler Clark Griffith John McGraw Arlie Latham |

Agreed! Also, not a HOFer, but you could arguably add Cy Seymour to that list, even though he played more years and broke out as a hitter in the 20th cent.
|
Yep, Cy would be one, but I think I'm going to narrow my search to players who played more years, or had their best years in the 19th century.
|
Makes sense - that's a nice group of T206s for any collection!
|
Jimmy Collins started out in the Minors in 1893 and was in the Major League in 1895.

Some dude named Honus Wagner? 1897 - 1899. Started having great years in 1900 with his first batting title. His stats for the 19th century weren't bad. Some people include 1900 as the 19th century so a batting title wouldn't be bad.
Edited to add... good luck in getting that T206 :) |

Here is a list of the HOF players and player/managers in the T206 set that played at least one year in the 1800's. Maybe outside of the scope of what you are looking to collect, but that is the beauty of collecting...you can narrow or widen the net however you please.
Beckley Bresnahan Chance Chesbro Clarke J.Collins Crawford Davis Duffy Flick Griffith Jennings Keeler Lajoie McGinnity McGraw Waddell Wagner Wallace Willis Young Brian |
Bill Dahlen debuted in 1891 for the Chicago Colts.
|
And Carleton Molesworth had a brief run with Washington in 1895. I think one of the other SL players did as well - maybe on of the Harts?
|
Al Orth started in 1895.
Bill Dineen in 1898. |
