Default T206 focus

I posted this recently on another thread, but heck I will post it again with modifications to focus on the T206's.

I was driven by my folks to a card show near LAX in 1981, and the first dealer inside (yes, I remember it was on the right side) had some beat up old cards in their case. Two of the five I ended up with were:

T206 Mathewson Dark Cap
T206 Johnson pitching

Both were around F-G condition. These cards started me on the path to low-grade collecting bliss. I still have them, and if I had to get rid of all my cards I have collected except one, I would hang onto the Matty - what a classic card.
