To start with, the last time I looked at the PSA and SGC registries there were about 50 sets
with 250-524 cards.
By extrapolating that number of sets by a factor of 10 x....I would say there are at least 500
sets (Worldwide).

A better gauge of measuring this, is how many Demmitt's and O'Hara's (St Louis vars.) exist.
As, I think any really serious T206 collector would have these two in his (or her's) set. After
collecting T206's for 26 years, I have concluded there are about 500 (each) of these two
Subjects out there. And, 75 to 90% of them are in near complete sets.

But, I'm no expert at this game....just giving you my educated (or experienced) guess. I know
long time collectors, who have fully completed T206 sets that have been working on them as
far back as 1970. A significant number of those sets are in high quality mylar plastic sheets.
Some, of these collectors have had their "Big 4, 5, or 6" T206's graded; but, their remaining
cards are ungraded.

Anyhow, that's my opinion, for whatever it is worth.....my guess is 500+
