Default T206 Piedmont set.....MISSION ACCOMPLISHED

Posted By: Ted Zanidakis

JOHN, you asked....."Did you keep track of the cost? Have any idea what it took to put that
together?"

I'm just getting back to you on this, as it has been quite complicated to figure out the cost.
Partly, because about 30% of these cards were carried over from my 2nd set. And, those
cards were acquired with "old $$$$", when T206's were much more affordable. For example,
the Green Cobb (that is shown in the above scan) cost me only $250 when I bought it.

The other factor that complicates the cost estimate on this set is that there was a lot of
trading going on in order to acquire many of these cards. And, translating those tranactions
into $$$$ is at best like playing with "funny money".

Anyhow, I cannot give you a $$$$ figure at this point; but, I will keep plugging away at this
and should come up with a realistic cost sometime soon.......actually, I'm curious to find out,
myself.

Thanks for asking.....TED Z
