Should we start calling the T202 set the mini-monster?

I love the T202s. I'm not necessarily working toward a set, but have been picking them up for about 2-3 years. I've focused mainly on key HOFers.. my first targets being the 2x HOFer (or near HOFer) cards like Baker Collins, Speaker Wood, Evers Chance, Cobb Jennings, etc. If I'm able to score a good deal on a common lot, I may consider going after the set.. but for now I'm content with colors, cool action shots, and cooler back write ups on the ones I've got (I got the SGC-30 Cobb/O'Leary from you Joey).
Ian, those are incredible. You weren't kidding when you said you loved the set.

That Cobb steals second just blows me away. That's one I'm going to have to get, and early on. That will be another I need to save up a bit for in nice condition.

I also really like the Speaker rounding third. It's a bit reminiscent of the iconic shot of Cobb rounding third.



I'm going to look for the thread to the Shoeless Joe discussion. Sounds like a fun read.

BTW, great thread as usual, everybody.
