Years ago I bought some very large Detroit Tiger photos, I mean very large, 5 were 30" x 40" and one was 40'" x 60'. They were done by the Detroit News in the 1930's. Anyway the person I bought them from was 93 years old, this was around 1980. He had many T206 cards in a scrapbook. That was the last original collector of T206 cards that I knew. He would be 125 today. You can see one of the photos as my avatar, Ty Cobb.
