I know that 1909 are the rarer ones, and beyond that there is some debate about Northwestern League players being rarer, and different back types being rarer in the 1910 and 1911 sets. I saw where Bob Lemke's blog has a bunch of cool information both on these cards -and the obscure and now long-gone players who adorned them.

Thanks,

John, our collecting sounds similar. I am also primarily a postwar guy but get the itch to at least dabble in prewar. A couple of times I have purchased a few T206s but then abandoned. But I can't say I don't like the 206s because I still do. The t212s, among other similar issues, is a direction I have looked at a little. The same with the 210s. Good luck!
