I added images of every card, and a catchall image for each back. Give it a shot please and let me know if you come across any wrong images or data.

Enjoy

(Thanks to Matt Fulling, whoever he is, for getting the small T206 card-front images started in 2002. Apparently he never finished because I stumbled across a zipfile download with about 350+ of the fronts done. So I finished the rest of them, and did some sharpening, bordering, etc. to all of them.)

Still no takers to help keep this thing up-to-date with market value? If someone wanted to teach me how to analyze such data I'd be glad to do it myself??? I feel the tool has potential - I just need a helping hand to make it so.

Thanks, Brian, we're now in touch.

Another update: tonight I have began coding an online T206 checklist, where any user can create there own unique checklist to keep track of their T206's. I'm not sure when it will be done, but know that it is in the works, and I am working dilligently to finish mainly for my own use, but everyone is more then welcome to use it upon its completion.

"Coming soon to a www near you, the MLBVintge.com T206 Personal Set Checklist Database"

including the double pictures?

The HTML copies perfectly in "single file only." In "complete file," you can pick out your card, your back and your grade--but them it won't give out...I'll nerver understand computers.
Anyway, thanks some more!

Probably 6 or 7 hours tops - the checklist will probably take about the same I assume.

The reason the estimator will not work offline is because when you hit submit the form goes to a processing script which contains the formula to calculate the value. It's a server-side script which means it resides on the web-server and is processed there then output as HTML to you, the end-user.

The initial form is also server-side generated, and then what you see to choose the card, grade, back is the result of the output of database records to populate the form.

Pretty neat, eh?

Well I am 20 hours into the checklist software so far. I didn't expect it would take so long but it is a little bigger beast to conquer then I had originally assumed. I worked for 4 hours Friday night on it when I mentioned it, and I started at 3pm Saturday, and I haven't stopped yet... it's 7am Sunday. I think I am going to sleep on it around 9 or 10am, and finish it up today (Sunday) when I wake up so we can start using it! I am confident it's going to be a hit - I am trying to make it as "swell" as possible. I am pretty excited about launching it, but I want to make sure is it consumable and working A+ before you all get ahold of it. It may be a few features shy of a full registry style checklist, but I have taken notes on future additions, and will definitely get to them all eventually. Not to mention surely some of you will have requests - which I will do my best to accomodate.

You will see soon enough - muahahaha!

Hope everyone has had a nice weekend.
