Just responding to your earlier question.....
"Don't you think a good percentage of those "sets" you have know of over the years might not
have had Demmitt and O'Hara's in them. That is the case with a lot of the sets in that survey
on here a few months back."


The 60 (or so) T206 sets that I referred to in the earlier post are mostly those of "old veteran"
collectors. And, over 90% of these sets had both the Demmitt and O'Hara St Louis variations.

And, I am not surprised that a good number of the "new breed" of nearly completed T206 sets
are missing these two tough cards. It takes time to acquire the more expensive cards in this set
such as these two. I recently sold two Demmitt's and two O'Hara's to 4 different collectors, all
of whom, had waited many years to get these cards for their sets.
