Thanks Bob, You have an incredible list yourself. I'd probably be at 522/524 of the T206's but when I started collecting them, I wanted all the front/back combinations. So I have many front duplicates but they all have different backs. So technically I have multiple T206 sets and all the cards are different between them. My second set is at 399/524, my third set is at 277/524, and my fourth set is at 163/524 and so on. My largest run for one card front (Hal Chase Blue Portrait) is 17 different backs. My biggest T206 regret is not getting an Eddie Plank early on, and not getting started sooner. I was side tracked for over 25 years with over produced cards that everyone owned.
