What players would you have liked to see in the t206 set?
 

Sorry if this has been discussed before!

My only stipulation is that the player you mention had to have been playing in one of the organized leagues at or around the time of the original release of the set.

My vote is for Babe Adams of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Who you got?

Brad

maybe the most obvious
 

Joe Jackson

"Smokey" Joe Wood!

Lovely Day...

Smokey Joe and Connie Mack.

"Colby" Jack Coombs

Joe Wood, Harry Hooper, Duffy Lewis, Larry Gardner

Sam Leever and Stuffy McInnis, too.

I'll second Joe Jackson and Connie Mack

Max Carey and a Honus Wagner non-portrait pose!

+1

Missing from set
 

Besides those already mentioned, I would like to have seen these:

Cy Morgan (won 18 in 1909 and 1910 with 1.81 and 1.55 eras)
Jake Daubert (hit .264 in 1910, .307 in 1911)
Earl Moore (won 18 in 1910 and 22 in 1911)
Grover Alexander (won 28 in 1911)
King Cole (was 20-4 with 1.80 era in 1910 and won 18 in 1911)

Jack Combs, Connie Mack, and Babe Adams (which have been mentioned) are the most surprising omissions to me because they were famous in 1910. Alexander, Carey, McInnis and Jackson were new and didn't become well known until 1911.

missin'
 

jackson,hooper,wood,coombs

and scores more.

Adams was the first that came to mind for me. I second the "more Wagner" poses and would add Plank in there as well.

How about some more of our friends from the South?

Or, maybe even some Obakers from out west?

Good recommendations guys! I, of course, would love to see a Carey.

Joe Jackson
 

It would've been cool if Joe Jackson had a T-206 portrait.

I made this up years ago, so it's a little bit crude, but here's a "what if?" card
for this thread....

I am with David McD.-there are plenty players from the south that were more than worthy but very few made it.
I think they actually stopped the 206 Old Mill run to make way for t210.

I would also like to see as mentioned above:
Smokin' Joe's Wood
Ol Casey
and Connie Mack

Bob

Some Phillies I would have liked included were...
Eddie Grant
Fred Luderus
Earl Moore
Grover Alexander

Joshua
