Default T206 collectors.....whats the average age of collectors?

Posted By: Joe Pelaez

507
That's great.
The day you hit 508 ... I want to hear it. ... I want this whole board to hear it. ... You're doing fantastic.

Hey Guys and Dolls (Oops, Damon Runyan).
The T206, is a deceptively suttle set. ... always has been.
So suttle that you don't realize that you're being hooked.
It takes its time, and baits its hooks with all different types of bait.

It could be a player.
It could be a team.
It could be a back.
It could be a printing variation.
It could be an error.
It could be anything that catches your fancy.
It starts there, and over a period of time you acquire a junkie that will keep you strung out with a T206 fix.

To those of you that start off as team collectors, or HOF collectors, do not be surprised if over the period of years, you start appreciating back collecting.
The set just grows on you, in a sneaky way.

If you're near the end of your quest, do not be surprised if you find yourself starting another one.

Guys and Dolls, we're talking about the most popular set of the 20TH/21ST Century.

My name is Joe Pelaez, and I'm a T206 addict.
