Who are our Hobby's Top Researchers?

[tedzan]

Lyman Hardeman for publishing one of the finest publications this hobby has ever seen. He is the
quintessential editor. When I wrote my OC article on the 1949 LEAF BB set, Lyman's intellectual
curiosity motivated me to do more research into the "nitty-gritty" of certain subtleties of this set.
And, because of this, a more informative story was presented.


Scot Reader for providing us a long awaited new perspective on "The Monster". His research has
clarified many of the T206 complexities; and, has given us a better appreciation of these cards.
Scot's book is a tremendous contribution to this hobby....a must read for both beginner and ad-
vanced collectors of the T206 cards.


Finally, I'd like to thank all those who have posted some very kind words on my behalf here. To
David (of Rhode Island)....believe it or not guy, T206's are not even my most favorite cards. Ac-
tually, my favorite is the 1888 N162 set, followed by the 1941 Play Ball, then the 1949 Leaf and
Bowman sets. However, the T206's stir up an endless curiosity in me, that will last a lifetime.
