My uncle died when I was 7. He had 4 daughters and I was his only godson so his wife gave me all his baseball cards. He had shoeboxes full of small cards ( I now know they were all T205 and T206 cards) and weird square cards with Goudey on them. I was only interested in current topps cards at the time. I remember using the Goudey cards in my spokes on my bike to make it sound "cool". My mom threw them all away when I went to college. My youngest daughter got into the 2002 Topps T cards. Hit on a t206 Bradley buyback insert. It brought back memories of my uncle and I did some research. I now have about 100 t206 cards and add a couple of cards a year to my collection.
