I guess most collectors arrange their set in alphabetical order. Or by teams, or by other means. Anyhow I am curious, does anyone here arrange their set as follows ?
I started arranging my T206 cards with respect to the 150, 350-only, 350/460, 460-only, and Southern Leaguers series when I started my all-PIEDMONT set in 2006.
I did this in order to appreciate how American Lithographic printed (and issued) these cards. By arranging these cards in this manner, I have certainly gained a lot of
insight into the structure of the T206 set. This is just a suggestion for you serious T206 set enthusiasts.
I will illustrate here, starting with a page from the
150 Series in the PIEDMONT set......
