T205 Group Shots

[obcbeatle]

Here's my RAW low grade (but much loved) NY Giants subset ... minus the Raymond. Hard to find a somewhat presentable low grade Raymond. At least on my budget :-) Actually ... kinda' hard to find a Raymond period :-) I haven't gotten the nerve yet to crack the PSA 1 Matty to fill the empty pocket. A few other SGC's I did crack. Those were Poor-Good and mostly commons. The Snodgrass is a P42 ... with a hole punch. I was hoping the hole punch was period (1911) ... but probably not :-( I love the T205 set because of the period bios on the back. I've always wondered who wrote all those bios. Maybe a NY news writer like Bozeman Bulger? Or some lonely ATC/ALC employee(s)? Anyway ... a great set that I've tried to complete multiple times over the years ... but always give up when I get to the higher priced HOFER's and short prints. So I settled on my favorite team (the NY Giants) who employed my great, great Uncle (Larry Doyle :-) Thanks to everyone that has posted their pictures so far. Some great looking cards!
