David, I know of another collector that has recently cracked out his T206's. He may have started a trend. . I started collecting the set a year ago, but only after finding this site. I spent hours pouring over all the posts about T206's, visiting the many links provided here and then and only then started purchasing cards. I bought some mid grade raw lots to see how they felt and looked up close and personal. I then started buying mid grade, graded HOFer's. I was and still am more comfortable buying a slab HOFer. There are deals out there raw, but for the little extra money, knowing the card is not trimmed or altered is worth the piece of mind. Most sellers know they will get more for a graded card so they grade them themselves. 120 of my 127 are graded and I will continue in this direction. That's the way I started. Joe

People said it was a million dollar wound. But the government must keep that money, cause I ain't never seen a penny of it.
