Default Fascinating T206s

While in the midst of reading the latest issue of SGC Collector Magazine, I thought I'd ask the following:

Big 4 and Hall of Famers aside, what specific T206 cards do you find most fascinating (show 'em), and why?

T206 Titus holds a certain mystique...only t206 card featuring a great mustache! I would show a scan of mine but am away from my home at the moment.

Default fascinating

I still love looking at the Dove or lack thereof on the Ritchey cards.
And Shag's hairdo still brings a smile to my face---particularly when i compare this picture with those in his later life where he looks like the rest
of us older baby boomers.
still can't scan---sorry.


best,
barry

Default Barry I agree on Shag

He looks like he is scared to move and mess up his hair. D.

Not fascinating or fascinated, but the Joe Tinker portrait has always reminded me of Eraserhead (title character from David Lynch's first movie).

Default shag

thanks for the scan,D.Broughman.
he does look afraid to move.
if i remember correctly, in his later pictures he retains the 'hair precision' but
has a bit more of a distinguished military look or old school 'coachly' look.

best,

barry

I think that image of Tinker also inspired a slight variation in the form of the Flock of Seagulls haircut in the '80's.

Man, that guy from the Flock would have made a great 206 portrait

I've always found it interesting that Hal Chase is found with five different poses in the T206 set (the most by any player).
