Yes, it was ironic that I can't spell awful, you are correct.

I don't have an issue with all the T206 threads either. When I got into vintage cards 3 years ago that was my gateway set. I no longer collect it, but I always find myself coming back to it to pick up a card here and there.

So I too say bring them on.

Shag is my favorite card out of the set. I have an example with all three of the possible backs (Piedmont 350, Old Mill SL, and Hindu). A fun little subset.

Me too. I suspect I'll always need a periodic dose of T206 methadone.

Well Barry since you are the only one that tried to answer I will just tell ya. He is featured on a Topps baseball card in the 1964 Topps Rookie All-Star Banquet set. The card depicts him (obviously later in life) along with Jackie Robinson, Charles Spink, Al Silverman, Joel Shorin, J. McDermott, and J. McKenney.

Never would have gotten that Rhett. It was a tough one.

yawie
 

with your selling of so many of your favorite T206 St. Louis cards, I've wondered how your addiction was doing. i'm pleased the Monster dose
of methadone is helping! :)
always glad to see you on board, ole buddy.

Jumping in here a little late but I've been quite busy losing girls high school basketball games but that's another story.

I didn't catch the banner debate, I tend to stay away from those, but I will say that the highlight of my 1st National this year in Cleveland was meeting fellow Net54 members. It would be a shame not to have another get-together in Baltimore even if it would cost us to assist in putting it together.

As far as too many T-206 threads.......they don't bother me a bit, I don't collect all T-206, I got all of the Reds and a few other selected cards and don't really have the interest to go after the whole set but I still enjoy seeing the pick-ups and thoughts of those that do collect T-206 extensively.

Have a great holiday everyone!

I like T206 AND obak discussions. And this thread is the best ever to grace this board.

I like Brian's posts
 

I have thoroughly enjoyed Brian's posts on various issues (D310, M116/E91, etc.) and learning new perspectives. Unfortunately I don't have much to add to them to aid in testing the theories :(

Not garbage, just trash, compacted
 

Sometimes you post a thread and it ends up spiraling away from your original intentions. I just wanted to hopefully instill the fear of the card gods into getting some additional interesting posts and responses on this great site.
T-206's will always be the star amongst vintage colectors, and this set should be...it has it all, with a ton of nuances and mysteries to satisfy all the detectives amongst us. Keep on posting T206 info, lurkers contribute when you are able, and peace be to all

So there.
