T206 SOVEREIGN....master set mission
 
Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Borrowing the last lines from the 1974 movie The Sting....when Paul Newman asks Robert Redford<br />(after they pulled off the elaborate "Sting" on Robert Shaw)......"Was that as good as it gets ?"<br />Redford replies....."No".....then smiles, and says....."but it was damn close".<br /><br />Well, that scene reflects my feelings regarding my T206 all-SOVEREIGN set. <br /><br />Its been 6 months since I put together this set. Still need the elusive Red Cobb with the SOV 460<br /> back to have 410 cards, which completes this basic set. <br />Yes, a tremendous achievement; but, not good enough.<br /><br />I've continued collecting the Sovereign's in order to attain a "master set". I have the 140 cards in<br /> the 150/350 series with their SOV 150 backs. If I have done my homework correctly, approx. 80<br />of these 140 Subjects were also printed with SOV 350 backs. So far, I've acquired 40 of these<br /> additional 80 cards.....and, I am very happy to say that my research shows that the Green Cobb<br /> is one of 60 cards in this series that were never printed with the SOV 350 back. <br />I have both the 150 & 350 backs on the other Cobb (bat on) in the 150/350 series. So, it should<br />be a downhill ride from here.<br /><br />Griffith is my most recent pick-up in this endeavor. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.freephotoserver.com/v001/tedzan/agriffithsov350.jpg"><br /><br /><br />TED Z

Posted By: <b>Ted Zanidakis</b><p>Thanks CRAIG<br /><br />Before the SOVEREIGN set, I "completed" an all-PIEDMONT set and that was tough enough. So, I<br /> have no interest in doing a master set with the PIEDMONT's. I am content with my 519-card set.<br /><br />However, the SOVEREIGN brand really intrigues me, since I've learned to expect many "No Prints".<br /> I enjoy the challenge of figuring out which cards were never printed with this T-brand. In the pro-<br />cess of putting together the basic 410-card SOVEREIGN set, I discovered that 66 Subjects were<br /> never printed with the Sovereign brand (in addition to the "Big Six" and the 48 Southern Leaguers).<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />T-Rex TED

Posted By: <b>Craig W</b><p>My contemporary card complete sets (72-92 topps, 80's-90's donruss, fleer, score, bowman, upper deck) are all in plastic sheets.<br /><br />But my vintage card collection (80+ T206s, 2 N172s, 6 T201s, and 2 T202s) that I started 6 months ago are all PSA graded and are shown off in 50-card display cases, except the t201s which are displayed on a book shelf. (I tried putting the slabs in large pocket sheet, but it didn't work too well. lol!) I don't own any raw vintage cards because I don't feel like I have enough experience to tell the difference between an authentic card and a well done reprint. If I ever do get to the point of collecting raw vintage <br />cards, they'll go into plastic sheets.<br /><br />Regards,<br />Craig<br />

Posted By: <b>Frank Wakefield</b><p>Plastic sheets for the most part for me, folks. However I do have some cards in boxes, although they used to be is sheets. I moved them to save on storage space.<br /><br />Boxed: T206s, Diamond Stars, ZeeNuts Bowmans, all Topps other than 1967.<br /><br />Sheets: T205, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 22s, all of my E cards, Colgans, Goudeys, Playballs, and 1967 Topps.<br /><br />67 Topps was the first set I completed as a kid. I don't have those originals. But I've almost replaced them, I slowly pick up one or two...<br /><br /><br />I probably have less than half a dozen slabbed cards. One I'll give away to a kid one day, a couple I just haven't broken out yet.<br /><br /><br />The sheets that hold 15 cards look pretty good...

I have boxed Topps sets from 80-92(which I am getting rid of) and some oddities in slabs (a Carter Collection card, Overprinted 39 Play Ball) and I think any E cards I will keep slabbed as well but I like cards in sheets. I busted out my T206's (which admittedly are low grade) including all 4 Cobbs but if I had a Demmitt or O'Hara I would likely keep those slabbed.<br /><br /><img src="http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p280/dsh46/CobbParty.jpg">

Yuk! took the fun of viewing a near full set right out of the picture for me. Great for single cards though. WOW! I am shocked by the number of plastic sheet users here!!!

(Many have been liberated after they got here.)<br /><br />My 1933 Goudey set is also raw and in binders, as is everything else post-war. Some of my pre-war stuff is graded, but not submitted by me.

Posted By: <b>Jeff W.</b><p>My T206 set is raw and in a very nice binder. I do, however, buy most of my cards graded and crack them out once I receive them. I feel comfortable buying my cards from ebay only if they are graded. There are too many horror stories of people getting ripped off because somebody altered the scan or gave a false description. The only time I have ever bought raw T206's were from two very reputable people here on the BST. <br /><br />The only thing I don't like about the binders is how the pages bend just a little bit on the corners. So, if I put all 15 cards in a page the one's on the corners of the pages bend just a little bit. I am thinking of getting page dividers cut to go in between the plastic sheets to keep them flat.<br /><br />Any thoughts on that or am I the only one to experience it?<br /><br />Jeff

T206 SOVEREIGN....master set mission
 
Posted By: <b>David G</b><p>I am a 39 year old Dinosaur. All of my t sets (201, 205, 206, c46) are in sheets. I just like "flipping through the book" with my sons.<br /><br />Yes, I know C46 is not a t set but it fits the theme!
