Early 1970's, a West Coast dealer whose name I don't recall (and I also don't recall how I heard about him) was selling T218 boxers for twenty five cents each and T206's for fifty cents. I sent him a dollar, got two T218's (James Jeffries and Jack Johnson!), and the T206 pictured on the right. Not a bad deal. I haven't needed to replace it in the fifty-plus years since.

The other card, a 1961 Ralph Houk, is literally the first baseball card I ever owned.
