How many T206's do you own?
 
Something I've wondered about is the quantity of t206s that people have accumulated. We know a lot about progress in completing individual sets but with all the back runs and people collecting certain players, teams, poses, etc. I thought it would be interesting to simply find out how many individual specimens people have.

Currently I have about 840.

You can't count one card four times. I don't care how many overprints it has.:)

T206Collector 10-24-2014 10:52 AM

65:

- 45 autographed (38 unique and authentic player poses, 1 dupe, 2 wife-signed, and 4 unauthenticated)

- 20 unsigned unique poses

freakhappy 10-24-2014 10:55 AM

Roughly 197...four dupes I believe

he/they only counted once :) also have a couple Matty white caps and a Young Port- Hindy........ Those are all I kept.

bunst 10-24-2014 11:02 AM

About 540 which includes many duplicates.

the 'stache 10-24-2014 11:02 AM

42.

jimivintage 10-24-2014 11:05 AM

I think 10 or 11 right now, but growing weekly. T206s still aren't my top priority, but I do love them!

h2oya311 10-24-2014 11:05 AM

I have one currently, and am trying to whittle that down to zero. But I am mildly interested in the set and may tackle it (or a subset of it) in the very distant future.

gregr2 10-24-2014 11:06 AM

Just 5 here.

lgbbcards 10-24-2014 11:08 AM

100+ with a few dupes

Stonepony 10-24-2014 11:47 AM

16... Quality over quantity I suppose

Jeffrompa 10-24-2014 11:47 AM

I have 23 but I am starting a set so I will be focusing more . Net54 is to blame . :rolleyes: I should have said "subset " .

Bocabirdman 10-24-2014 11:51 AM

What are these T206 that everyone keeps talking about?

conor912 10-24-2014 11:56 AM

Never been into them...I think they're boring.

LKeeler 10-24-2014 11:58 AM

Have the Keeler batting but that is it.

I've owned well over 1000 of them over the years, but several years back, I stripped down the collection, and focused on quality. I have about 2 dozen these days, rare backs and drastic back miscuts.

Awhile back, there was a discussion here I believe about "the 25 card collection". Buy cards, then sell/trade other cards...keeps the collection fresh and exciting, IMO...I'm basically doing that.

DaveW 10-24-2014 12:22 PM

I have 5 - just enough to know I'm not crazy about them .....

Sean 10-24-2014 12:49 PM

522 different cards.

Around 560 if you count duplicates.

Paul S 10-24-2014 02:56 PM

Stayed at 60 or 70 for decades. Now at 19...soon to be at 17 when my live auction ends: I will keep the Dorian Gray portrait;)

Nothing wrong with them, just too much other nice stuff out there.

slidekellyslide 10-24-2014 08:26 PM

I have one...can't even recall who it is or where it is...found it in a stack of postcards I bought.

I agree, I own 3-4 or so but mainly because they were in a lot I purchased for a completely different item. Nothing wrong with T206's but I just don't collect 'em.

AJR 10-24-2014 08:43 PM

Nothing wrong with a good t206
 
I have roughly 360 t206 cards...

Sometimes the count fluctuates up to around 400 and at one time I owned around 440.

Jacklitsch 10-24-2014 08:44 PM

63

At one time had over 2,000

bnorth 10-24-2014 08:46 PM

When I first joined this site I got the T206 bug and bought 41 of them from fellow members in around 3 months. Since then I discovered I really did not like them and sold them as one lot in the auction section. So my # is 0.

Bridwell 10-24-2014 08:53 PM

T206s
 
I have about 600. 521 different, about 40 dups with tougher backs plus another 40 dups.

t206head 10-24-2014 08:59 PM

I got 520 different and hundreds of a few key cards I like a bit odd yes but I collect what I like

caramelcard 10-24-2014 09:00 PM

700 and somethin at the moment. Never really get tired of them.

ooo-ribay 10-24-2014 09:36 PM

+1, except that I would replace "nice" with "nicer"! :D

familytoad 10-24-2014 10:28 PM

HOFers only
 
I only collect HoFers in T206, but I found a Dummy Taylor in one box that I will probably trade.
So maybe Qty 30 T206 cards in my collection, lacking only Cobbs at this point for "big ones " (and of course, Honus & Eddie)
I should make a list :cool:

I vowed long ago not to try for the Monster. So far, I have never had more than a small stack before trading off the commons. Nothing wrong with them really, but a bit too easy.

tonyo 10-25-2014 12:54 AM

Currently at about 530. When my MN hit 520 I went about 6 months without buying one, but now I'm back into them and am interchanging when I see cards that add variety within my set.

I like the fact that they are available and relatively affordable.

Piratedogcardshows 10-25-2014 05:34 AM

I have four all from the Virginia League. One day I would like to finish that little subset.

jefferyepayne 10-25-2014 06:28 AM

Not into them at all but somehow have ended up with 205. :eek: 210 if you count doubles.

jeff

brob28 10-25-2014 06:31 AM

About 20. I don't see me amassing a large quantity unless my collecting preference changes. I'm putting together the HOF portraits and attempting a back run.

Harford20 10-25-2014 06:35 AM

116 total. 110 HOF, 3 Merkle, 3 commons. No duplicates, but a couple of back runs. Looking to pick up my last 3 Cobb's to complete the HOF set.

Dave

ullmandds 10-25-2014 06:41 AM

15 or so...too many!

wolf441 10-25-2014 07:10 AM

534 - 517 individual, 8 for a player/back run, 9 doubles due to print variations (missing red color pass, etc) that look cool in album pages next to their normal counterparts!

That is real specific and I used to know exactly how many I had. It was 655 at one point. I kept a detailed list, at least what I thought was detailed, until someone asked about specific backs, not just the brand. Since I stopped the list, I've bought some and sold some and I'm not sure what I've done more of, so I have approximately 655.

drmondobueno 10-25-2014 10:41 AM

Somewhere around 630.
 
I keep losing and finding Pat Moran. Finally bought a second as an upgrade and of course I have misfiled that card, and it is graded. You'd have to see my "office" to understand. I know its around here somewhere, at least I think it must be. Hmmm...maybe its in the scanner. Naw...

uffda51 10-25-2014 05:29 PM

Zero. Back in the 90s I had about 75-80.

David W 10-25-2014 06:49 PM

41.

Most are low grade beaters I've picked up cheap.

bbcard1 10-25-2014 07:04 PM

Probably about 550 right now. A set of 520, a few back variations and various cards I think are interesting for one reason or another...strange back stamp or whatever...a handful of dupes I have upgraded but not gotten around to selling.

kmac32 10-25-2014 10:00 PM

Zero

With many, many duplicates. But always looking for more. See my signature below. Thanks.

I had over 200 at one time, but I now have only 3 that I received as gifts. I love them and I could easily start collecting them again.

triwak 10-27-2014 10:48 AM

14. All HOFers.

paulcarek 10-27-2014 02:26 PM

3, all HOF.

deadballfreaK 10-28-2014 12:18 AM

519 diff plus maybe 40 dupes at the moment.

autograf 10-28-2014 06:49 AM

Sold a near set a few years back and have less than 10 right now--mostly as types in my type collection.

bn2cardz 10-28-2014 07:00 AM

I currently have 32.

I do have a subset going but only have 9 towards that.

I also have another 9 that are of the same subject, but isn't a back run more like a small hoard. This started to compare the printing after coming across a card that had an extra color pass and people said it looked like a normal variance in color, so I started buying up other cards to compare and haven't found one that is even close.

To give it a number.............152

Roofman4 10-28-2014 02:04 PM

Currently have 15....
 
:confused:...and STILL looking for the 16th. Certainly someone on this thread with all these thousands of T206's, someone has to have a Doc Adkins to help me finish my Baltimore subset! Anybody willing to sell one?


Thanks,
Roofman

clydepepper 10-28-2014 05:09 PM
