Default A T205 run can be fun....especially the tougher runs....show us your T205's

I have been working on NY Yankees T205 runs. First started with the group of 32 subjects which I refer to as the A - B - C - D connection. This group
of T205's were printed with more T-brands than the other T205's in this set. And, I really enjoy this challenge.

My experience doing these T205 runs has provided me an appreciation for the printing patterns of these cards. Some examples are......

The A - B - C - D cards and AMERICAN BEAUTY (Green) cards are mutually-exclusive.

HINDU cards and DRUM cards are mutually-exclusive.

PIEDMONT #42 and HASSAN #649 are mutually-exclusive. Thanks to Michael (gonzo), who brought this to our attention in a previous T205 thread.

And, Andrew's (T205 GB) Master checklist has been an excellent reference in searching for the various backs for my T205 runs.


So, I will start this show with my near-complete Miller Huggins and Harry Wolter runs.

. Need HONEST LONG CUT back.
HASSAN Factory #649



I've included Miller Huggins in my Yankees run. Great Yankees Mgr., plus he is the guy who persuaded Col. Jacob Ruppert (Yankees owner)
to acquire Babe Ruth from Boston in 1919.....and, the rest is history.


PIEDMONT Factory #42.... Huggins is one of the few guys in the group of 32 subjects comprising the A - B - C - D connection with
this very rare back.

My Huggins run is 90% complete (need HASSAN Factory #30). A DRUM has yet to be confirmed for Huggins. But, I expect that his DRUM card eventually will be discovered.


OK guys, that's the beginning of my show-n-tell. Looking forward to seeing your T205 run.
