Joe D.jp,
i think the year of the reprint would be irrelevant.
if a reprint would happen to become collectible, it would have to be tied to an external situation.... like a reprint given out on 'yankee reprint day' when derek jeter gives a retirement speech... or something like that. Even then, who knows if it should be a collectible.
I personally would never collect reprints.
Some of the great legal minds on this board may be able to help with copyright protection (if these images are now public domain or not). If they are public domain... any printer on any given day could decide to put out a run of reprint T206s or any other vintage set.
I would buy them for reference and enjoyment only. Don't ever pay a premium for a reprint.
