Hey Steve...I, too, am a big fan of the T205's and started working on this set in the past year or two. So far I have 30 cards in either VG or VG/EX...most are SGC slabbed (the Gold borders look fantastic against the black background) though I grab PSA examples when they are priced right.

The break down is as follows:

Hall of Famers: 8 (Brown, Clarke, Jennings, Marquard, Mathewson, Speaker, Wallace & Wheat)

Backs:

Piedmont Blue 25 – 10
Polar Bear – 4
Sweet Caporal Red –
Sweet Caporal Black 26 –
Sweet Caporal Black 42 – 6
Hassan Green 649 – 3
Honest Long Cut – 4
Sovereign - 1
Cycle - 1
Hassan Green 30 –
Peidmont Blue 42 –
American Beauty Black –
American Beauty Green – 1
Broadleaf Black –
Broadleaf Green –
Hindu –
Drum –
Blank -

And my favorites:




The McElveen is a particular favorite because this was the first vintage card I ever owned. I remember having this card back in the mid-1980s but somehow it got lost along the way...I picked up a new one a couple years ago and that got me started on the set.
