I can certainly vouch for Barry's $6/com. on acquiring T206 cards
back in the early 1980's; as, that is how I put together my first
set relatively cheap. My 521-st card (Magie) in that set cost me
only $600 (for a Vg one).
If I recall correctly, at the San Francisco National (in 1986 or '87)
T206 card prices took a significant "hike". Of course they were very
undervalued back in the early '80s (and especially if you compared
them to a Pete Rose rookie at that time which was selling for $250
and climbing).
