For the most part I view the front/back vintage card scenario in the same way, but when it comes to the T206 set it is kind of fun to even get down to the factory #'s. I don't seek out the tougher backs, but I like the fact that, for example, that many of the players in the 150/350 print group of cards have either 4 or 5 different Sweet Caporal backs available to collect, and within this group there are varying amounts of availability for each of these backs.

Dang, the T206 is such a complex beast with sharp pointy teeth...it deserves a deep dive for those with large hobby lung capacities!
