Default Big T206 Purchase

A few months ago I was at my local coin shop and the owner had just purchased 300+ T206's for basically nothing (couple hundred bucks I think). I went through the cards with him and let him know what he had because he didn't. Well over the last couple of months, he and I have been negotiating on a price and came to an agreement where he did very well and I got at a good price.

Included are:
316 T206's (251 are different......almost 1/2 the set)
18 HOF's (17 different)
55 SL's (35 different)
243 commons (199 different)
1 ghost back
1 card with the back showing on the front
6 misc cards

I checked and there were no rare backs that I could find.
There were two Titus'

The cards range from poor to Vg/Ex with 1/2 being in probably the Gd range. There is back damage on some of the cards. Looks some were in an album. Pretty stoked about getting this lot. Will probably sell most as only a few fit into my condition criteria but should be able to make some money and keep the cards I want.

Mark--What a find! Congratulations. I told my wife about your good fortune and she said, "Why can't you find cards like that?"

Great question.

Cheers,
Mike

Great find. What's the card between the E91 and the T210s?

Is it a T209?
