robert aLike Dan, I've been back and forth with Hall of Fame players and portraits for the last six years or so, but I've managed to keep at least one or two of each player. Now I'm going to finish out the commons.
The set has been more than rewarding for me so far and the journey has been truly fun.
When newer people to the site ask how to get started with vintage cards, I believe the 206s are the answer. It's a inexpensive way to learn about the difference between untrimmed and trimmed cards (eventually you'll accidently stumble upon a few), a little of the printing/color process, errors, etc. And, with the amount of variations and different fronts/backs, it's very possible to obtain uncommon combinations at semi-reasonable prices. It's just plain, vintage fun.
Good Evening Everyone!
