I haven't been able to put down Scot's 'Inside T206';
it's absolutely top drawer.

The book is full of gems---
i could list scores of them.

for now, i have to underscore Scot's insight into what captures all of us when it comes to the 206's:

'the set's intoxicating blend of our beloved National
pastime with nostalgic sentiments,attractive artwork, investment potential and the thrill of the hunt.'

wow!
thanks Scot.

OK, now I have to think about getting it. I had no idea it would be so poetic! lol. I was thinking more of a technical approach. But I am a sucker for that kind of expansive, idealistic, poetic description. Same reason I like Ken Burn's Baseball so much... Gotta go find the thread about that t206 publication.

As an avid T206 collector for 25 years, who has "completed" two
T206 sets, I highly endorse Scot Reader's 74 - page book.

Upon receiving the "electronic" text, I printed it onto real pages
and I read through it without stopping, it is well researched and
provides tremendous insight into the production of these cards we
love so much. In addition, it updates all previous information re-
corded on these cards; which as Scot so aptly noted, is an ongoing
mystery that unravels with time.

Thanks much....Scot....for the extensive effort you put into this
project. I, for one, am very grateful; and, I am sure that this
speaks for many members of this Forum.
