Looking to do a single card back collection of a T206 Common
Paul,
To build on what Tim and Jantz have already mentioned, another 150/350 series card you might want to consider is Bob Ewing. The card has nice colors (sunset) and has 8 possible backs, none of which are all that difficult.
Another recommendation would be the Del Howard card in the 350 series (shown below), which has 10 possible backs. The backs in the 350 series are generally more difficult than the 150/350 series, but on the up side, this card has not been confirmed with two of the more difficult backs - Carolina Brights and Drum.
I think the ultimate challenge would be to try and complete the back set for the Wild Bill Donovan Throwing card. I think this is one of the best looking T206s in the set (show below, middle). It's known with eight different backs, including the very difficult Broad Leaf 350 and Drum. If that wasn't enough of a challenge, you could branch out to other T and E sets that contain a nearly identical pose - including T213-1, T216, E92 (shown below, large), E101 (shown below, small), E102, E105 and E106. And given that T216 and E92 have multiple back brands and colors, you'd be looking at 20+ possible backs for this one pose.
Good luck!
