Phil, I do that with most T206 threads also, and I collect the set. I do the same with 'glove' threads, 'autograph' threads, 'bat' threads, and all other threads;i.e-if the title looks interesting I open it, regardless of the topic, although the Yee-love threads and autographed Ruth ball threads are a bit tiresome.
Funny thing - when I got back into this forum and started some threads, I got a few sarcastic responses about my posting about a repeat topic. Some people told me to use the 'search' function, some told me to shut up, but MOST were very polite in the way they told me that I was wasting their time
. Given that the T206 set is so popular with new collectors, you've got to figure you will get a lot of very honest 'mistakes' like the ones I made. I would encourage forum members not to beat these guys up and run them off.
Also, I think your threads are very interesting - I actually open some threads based entirely on the poster, regardless of the topic, and you are one of them.
