Show-n-tell us of your favorite T206 "action" pose

I like the artwork, composition of the pose and the flaming background colors on this one...always thought it would be at the top of many collector's wantlists if it had pictured a big name Hall of Famer.

I like that Leifield Brian. The Ewing has always been one of my favorite action shots too.

I like the Joe Tinker bat-away/bat-on cards, Home Run Baker, and WaJo pitching to name a few. I'll try to make some new scans of some stuff. Here are a couple of Tinker...

Hi Ted, I like this one. Scot

Great thread, beautiful cards.

I've always loved Speaker's mid-swing pose.

I’ve always felt Barney Pelty was one of the most beautiful cards ever, not just among T206. Pelty’s fingers remind me of Catholic iconography, as in this Titian.

I have a modest group of T206s, up to about 30 now. But of those I do have this Mathewson is my favorite, and it happens to be an action pose.

I like the color, him eying a runner, and the fact that I spent part of every summer while growing up in his hometown of Factoryville, Pa. Oh, and the fact that this was my first tobacco card means something as well.
