Frank WakefieldJay, I understand your view, and I basically agree.
I actually enjoyed the hunt that was involved in finding a card, years ago. Today there's not much hunt left. For the most part a fellow can find a card on eBay or somewhere, then if he throws money at it he'll get the card. And that is about where T206 front collecting is today. I see what Barry says, the backs make it the monster.
I'm still hunting for T210 series 6 cards of Angermeier fielding, and of Whitaker. That is a hunt for me. I just don't see either for sale anywhere. I'm about ready to swap my raggedy T200 premium in on a deal if it frees up those 2 cards.
I'm 513 cards into the white border tobacco cards, I understand why folks still embrace Mr. Heitman's name for the cards.
