favorite t205 backs?

[whelenfan]

I think that I am most fond of the honest long cuts and cycle backs (aesthetically-speaking). Not necessarily in that order...

I like the hassan factory 30's and piedmont 42's for whatever minor scarcity issue too.

I like the Cycle backs, they are nice looking and contain a couple of the big variations for the Master Set.
Collecting a full run of Cycles will be expensive, but I will eventually get them all.

For those of us who like cardboard rather than money, it's a great option

I like the sovereign myself.

I have been collecting AB backs. Though I do seem to pick up Cycle's when the price isn't too bad because I like font style.

I like polar

I do/did pick up Piedmont 42s from time to time, not for looks but I felt that they were the least understood.

Best looking for me is broadleaf or AB green

Worst is Polar Bear (t206 PB look great)

Real true best thing about T205 backs is not the brands
(That's more a T206 thing)
The best things is stats and write-ups.

Yeah, I agree! That is why I don't collect the 206's. fronts look nice, but I was always a stats guy! Love the write-ups on the back.

I'm partial to the green AB backs in both the T205 and T206 sets.
