Not me, but here are a few...it's too bad that the Heritage one doesn't have the "make an offer" available. Maybe one of these other houses would pass along an offer to the winner(s) for you...

Cheers,
Steve

You guys haven't seen the last of me on adding a great T216 to my (new) collection when the time is right!! Thanks for sharing guys. BTW, would love to see a Cobb Virginia Extra but never have.

[ullmandds]

thanks steve...don't know how I missed some of those...I must have been chasing something/someone else?!?!

[Zeenut]

This is the only one I have left... one of my favorite issues.

Here are my two T216s, Tinker and Bridwell, adjacent to each other in the album page that has been their home for many years.

Hi Chuck,

That is a great Speaker you have there! I got the Kotton Speaker first and then the MINO came up...had to have it too .

And I love the fantastic cards shown by everyone in this thread!

Cheers,
Blair

Nice cards everyone. Now here is one not so nice. This one closed out an 'ugliest card'' thread a couple of years back...no one had the heart to post after me.

Great cards all!

The Gibson doesn't fit my Philadelphia themed type collection and I'm missing one of the Kotton backs but I'm happy to have the following examples.

[brass_rat]

Great cards, Scott - I like that Virginia Extra!

Cheers,
Steve

I'm glad you added the anecdote...every card needs a little love...

[darwinbulldog]

I've sold a few in the past couple of years, but this is the only one I currently own.

I was recently fortunate to add this to my collection and got it graded at the show today. They are so fragile -- the paper loss on the bottom left kept it from being a 10.

I think that is the first one (Cobb leaning VE) I have seen.. super card......congrats...

[gabrinus]

Agree with Leon.....that is amazing Steve........Jerry

[brass_rat]

Thanks, guys. I agree, Leon -- no amount of searching has led me to another, so I'm pretty pleased. I got it along with this Crawford...

Cheers,
Steve

[RCMcKenzie]

Here are a few

[gabrinus]

Nice ones Robert.....Jerry

[RCMcKenzie]

Thanks, Jerry. Here's a VE I got recently. Just realized this thread goes back to 2013 and I already posted in it. I will have some more T216 on the way soon...

[ZachS]

So many great cards in this thread.

[VoodooChild]

Great cards everybody!

I never thought I'd be able to post in a thread like this, but I just won my first T216's at the last BST auction. I bought this lot for the Gibson and Oakes as they fit in my Pittsburgh Collection. The Lobert will be available once I receive them:

Steve, Congrats and Thanks for sharing! Incredible card!

Great Eye Candy Thread, and love seeing all this New Orleans "Thin" paper! I have owned about 2 or 3 VE's in my collection, and they never stayed in my collection very long. The last T216 I bought, came in a "Grab Bag" of T's in a Huggins or Hunt auction best of my recollection, and I didn't even know it was in the lot, nor did anyone else bidding. It was in incredible shape, and sold it very quick after buying the T lot of cards. (Will dig up scan if I can find it... Someone on the Net 54 board bought it from me) The crazy thing was I was bidding for a T211 in the lot, and wound up with a real T216 gem among some other nice stuff... Love those Grab bag auctions with out back scans!

[edjs]

I wanted to revive this thread, and figured I would add my newest T216 to kick start it. I love these cards.

[Bliggity]

Nice, Ed. What a great thread! I collect any & all E92-family poses, focusing on E92/101/102/106 at the moment, but I do have a couple T216s. Hope to add at least one or two more this year.

[Yoda]

The Wagner usually sells at a premium at auction because of the T206 tobacco connection.

[gabrinus]

Nice one Ed.....here are some Minos.........Jerry

[edjs]

Thanks Dan & Jerry. Yours aren't too shabby either. Jerry, where have you been, you haven't run a sale in forever. I look everyday for you to list! Is everything okay?

[gabrinus]

Everything's fine Ed....just in a holding pattern........Jerry
