I know this thread started as another complaint about people liking to collect T206's, and other sets not getting the air time they so richly deserve, but I think it's an intriguing question.

It's interesting that in this card fantasy, nothing replaced the T206's back in 1909. ATC just waited a couple of years and created T205's as their first set?

How about some scenarios that include some reality? If ATC had skipped T206 and waited, what would their first major set have looked like? Would whoever had the T205 design idea had his set created a year or two earlier, only huger, with perhaps some action shots for the major leaguers? Would things have stalled out and T205 and T207 ended up being much smaller sets, more in line with some of the caramel sets?
