Charlie O'NealI think Pete hit the nail on the head about collecting 206 there are so many different ways to collecting the cards people can adopt into the set based on there preferences thus bring more interest to the set (all the HOFers and Wagner history doesn't hurt either). This niche collections that can be made from the 206 is not really available in the 205.
Personally I would buy 206's over 205's any day of the week b/c they appeal to me more and it's what got me into collecting pre war cards in the first place.
