Default T206 Story

#1 What drew you into the set in the 1st place...
#2 Do you remember your 1st t206 card..
#3 Which t206s are you currently collecting...
#4 What t206s are on the top of your want list...

Ok,
#1 I started the T206 HOF set for the players involved. One of my collection focuses is on 8 early HOFers (Matty, Cy, Mordecai, Eddie Collins, Jimmy Collins, Chance, Lajoie and Speaker). The T206 set had all 8, which can be said for only a few sets (that I can afford). This 8 player undertaking branched into the complete HOF set.
#2 My first T206 was a Lajoie Throwing (still my nicest T206 as I purchased it years before the rest)
#3 I am working on a back set of the superprint Chance Yellow portrait, a back set on the Merkle throwing and upgrading my Matty cards. Still pecking away at the HOF set, now over 45 different players.
#4 My top want list is semi-rare backs for Chance Yellow (i.e. AB, EPDG, CB--not ready to tackle the biggies yet).

Good luck all with your finds,
Dave H
