Default Exclusive 12 project......Doc Crandall back-run (near complete)

* * * * * * * * * * * * T206 Reflections, Theory's, Surveys, etc. * * * * * * * * * * * *




Whoopee-Do ....After several years of searching, I finally acquired Doc Crandall's EPDG and TOLSTOI cards. This run is now 92% complete

I can't speak for you T206 (or T205) guys, but these challenging Tobacco runs are an enjoyable adventure for me. Attaining a near complete
T-set is certainly a great project. But, when it's done, it's done...." FINISHED ! ". Whereas, these individual T206 runs are virtually "endless".

in 4 different seasons. McGraw used Crandall as a pinch-hitter over 100 times in his career.

Crandall's 460-only Series card is in the group which I refer to as the Exclusive 12. I have been working on T206 runs of these
12 subjects. My first complete run (13 cards) is of John McGraw (glove at hip).

Displayed here is this near complete run. I still need find his virtually impossible UZIT card.
