T206Collector...cards are long and narrow like the Bresnahan. They were put into narrow cigarette packages. The Merkle looks a bit odd to me, I would probably stay away.
I won't pay more than $100 for a T206 card on ebay unless it is graded by PSA, SGC or GAI. And I worry about PSA cards that do not have the hologram on the back -- those with the hologram on the back were graded when PSA's standards were a bit higher, in my humble opinion. The last few PSA's I've bought without the hologram have been slightly overgraded. Maybe they deserve the number they got, but they're definitely on the low end of that number.
I have found SGC T206 cards are worth every penny.
