T206 - For you, which one is THE Card?
 
Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>I absolutely love the Tinker portrait as well. I once owned an SGC 70, but it had a speckle -- really hard to see -- bit of paint missing from the tip of his nose. I really couldn't get over that and wound up selling it. <br /><br />Similarly sold my PSA 6 Pink Chase because it had a corner wrinkle and SGC wouldn't cross it over as a result. But I miss that one a bit sometimes...<br><br>_ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ <u> </u> _ _ <br /><br />Visit <a href="http://www.t206collector.com" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.t206collector.com</a> for signed deadball card galleries, articles and more!

Posted By: <b>Ed McCollum</b><p>Don't have the card anymore, not even a scan, but I always like the almost pastel look of the illustration.<br /><br />"Yeah, I'm a ball player. This is my office. Let's play 9-innings"<br /><br />Sort of reminds me of the "Baseball vs. Football" by George Carlin.<br /><br />Miss the card, and Carlin.

Posted By: <b>Anonymous</b><p>John, I don't know why the grade is low on that card. I bought the Bat on , Bat off and the Green from 1 person through SCD in the 1980's. I have the receipt but can't locate it right now. I bought the red background at a Plymouth Michigan show, also in the 1980's. They were all purchased raw.<br /><br />Joe<br><br>Ty Cobb, Spikes flying!

Posted By: <b>Dean H</b><p>Love the colors of the Bat Off...<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1218823128.JPG"> <br /><br />and Cobb's intense stare.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1218823171.JPG">

Posted By: <b>Mark</b><p>Agree with many on this one... The "Bat Off" Cobb is unrivaled in terms of combining beauty and importance. Those colors are just stunning. <br /><br />A close second for me is Waddell throwing.

Posted By: <b>Paul S</b><p>I could have gone with anything posted in this thread.<br />Great looking cards, all. I'll put these up<br />since the scans are handy.<br /><br /><img src="http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z26/pspec/T206_Young_port-2_f-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z26/pspec/T206_cobb_boff_f-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i190.photobucket.com/albums/z26/pspec/T206_McGraw_port-1.jpg"><br /><br />Just want to say, it's refreshing to see all these<br />threads with cards in them. Never gets old no matter<br />how many times I look at them.<br /><br />*edited to wrap text<br />*edited for more wrapping

Posted By: <b>Rhett Yeakley</b><p>I can't believe nobody has brought up my personal favorite in the t206 set (which was also my first pre-war card ever) the mustacheoed John Titus! The guy was certainly a throw-back as the mustache was so out by the time the t206's were being distributed.<br />-Rhett<br /><br />PS: Rob, I love that horizontal!
