Hi Scot and Ted,
The quest for the "Master set" of T206's with all the available backs was invented by some of us insane collectors addicted to T206's. It's not enough to finish a set, because then the quest would end and we would have to move on to another set. So somone came up with the bright idea to collect each card with every possible back, which as we know is impossible, because they simply do not exist. Therefore we will continue to enjoy the T206 set until it kills us or we run out of money or both.
I would guess Heitman, Fritsch, Lipset, Martineau, and Mastro have come the closest. But, that's pure speculation. I'm up to 1346 cards, but that's a long..... way from 7000.
PS Be glad, otherwise I'd be competing with you guys on type cards and E cards, and prices would contiue to rise.
