Ted ZanidakisTo some collectors "a near complete T206 set" is not good enough....520 cards just don't quite do it for you. Then,
try putting together T-brand sub-sets that avoid the "Big Six"....and, you can achieve a sense of completion at an
affordable price.
Obviously, you avoid PIEDMONT and SWEET CAPORAL brands. So, presented here are 7 sub-sets, in order of their
availability and affordability that can be completed.
1st....POLAR BEAR....approx. 300 cards (incl. 2-Cobb's, 1-Johnson, 1-Matty, 1-CYoung)....$15,000.... add Demmitt
and O'Hara (St. Louis vars.).... then $22,000
2nd....TOLSTOI....approx. 300 cards (incl. 2-Cobb's, 1-Johnson, 1-Matty, 1-CYoung)....$16,000
3rd....SOVEREIGN....410 cards (incl. 5-Cobb's, 2-Johnson's, 4-Matty's, and 3-CYoung's)....$18,000
4th....OLD MILL....approx. 350 cards (incl. 3-Cobb's, 1-Johnson, 2-Matty's, 2-CYoung's and 48 So. Lgrs)....$22,000
5th....El Principe de GALES....approx. 300 cards (incl. 2-Cobb's, 2-Johnson's, 2-Matty's, and 2-CYoung's)....$24,000
6th....AMERICAN BEAUTY....approx. 350 cards (incl. 2-Cobb's, 1-Johnson, 1-Matty, and 1-CYoung)....$25,000
7th....Brown HINDU....190 cards (incl. 2-Cobb's, 1-Johnson, 2-Matty's, and 1-CYoung, and 37 So. Lgrs)....I will defer
to Brian Weisner on the price of this set.
Set prices are approx. and are based on UNGRADED cards in Vg-Ex condition.
