A couple of posts ago I talked about creases, stains, centering, and paper loss. I left out the obvious must have with T206s: color. Thanks, Adam for reminding me. The popping colors really have major visual appeal.

Yeah no problem. I personally like the "action" photos better than the portrait cards for the different colors. However some portraits are very nice too and I think a lot of collectors prefer the portraits. I look at a Johnny Evers with bat card or Ty Cobb bat off card compared to their portrait cards and the appeal just isn't there for me with the portraits. The bright colors just always drew me in.
