Kyle that is what I did with my first T206. I went with Harry Howell because the story of how he ended up ban from baseball is really funny when you get into the fine details. Now every time I buy a prewar card baseball or other sport I try to find out as much as I can about the players behind the card.

My uncle bought me a Harry Howell this past Christmas, and I immediately dug into his background/story.

My fiancee actually spent hours the other day researching 10 different players, looking for ones with cool stories to buy me. She knows I like players with stories, and with my collection being comparatively small to many, it helps me stay focused and on track.
