If you doing research on putting together an autographed T206 relic subset, the first thing you would learn is that Marquard died in 1980 and signed everything in sight including a slew of T206 cards. Given this, it is just surprising in my mind that they opted not to include one in this set -- or at least a 3x5 cut with the buyback T206. Ditto Snodgrass and Doyle, both of whom are also not featured here. This makes the subset sort of random, to me, which makes the subset less interesting as a collectible group. If you gave me $500 at a decent vintage card show (or on ebay, frankly), in a couple of hours I could get you half a dozen more autographs of T206 players on 3x5s as well as their respective T206 cards -- in addition to Sno and Doyle, you'd at least get Meyers, Bush, McBride and Rucker. Topps could have spent a couple more hours and hardly any more money and done a lot more with this subset, is all I'm saying.
