I am interested in knowing what set most collectors consider scarcer, the 1911 M116 Sporting Life set or the T-206 Tobacco set? I look forward to some replies, opinions.
Thank You

With the M116 set, you had to send in 4 cents to receive these as many of you know. The T206 you got for free when you bought the cigs. The population is only 3138 cards ever graded by PSA compared to 68896 for the T206 cards. I know they are not completly accurate but thats a big difference.

I was very happy to help you. It was my pleasure and I only hope that I was helpful to you in some way. Those E107's are my favorites and I consider myself lucky to have any in my collection. Since my grandmother was born in 1903 they are especially sentimental.
Thanks

I have an account at PSA so if you need a SMR or pop report on any card let me know. Also anyone else need one i could look it up for you.

Edited to say: maybe we can do a trade with my E107 cards and cash if you find one?
