Default mathewson,young,johnson portrait difficulty

Posted By: Dan Koteles

T206, that is a beautiful Mathewson...that is one that I would put proudly w/ my once many portraits !

Though I have narrowed them down,I still have all of my favorites. The Tinker portrait, though not mentioned in this group is very tough in hi-grade.

I had an sgc 84 Young port,had maybe 20 Johnsons over many years(easiest),never over a psa5 and few Mathewsons.I think that more people hold onto the Mathewsons
as the background look is tantalizing.

The Evers portrait and the red Chance are pretty tough!

They give the t206 set the vintage distinction they will hold many to interest, some of the action photos do nothing as they looked more cartoonish to early collectors as the caramels once did.
