In 1976 I went to my first card shop and then a couple of months later to my first show. I met John England there and he explained the T206s & T205s.
There was a dealer there with a complete set of T205s glued into an album. I thought that they were the coolest things I had ever seen! I remember he wanted $800 for the set, I left thinking what a nut!. I picked up an Old Judge when I was leaving for $4.00 along with three boxes of 1975 Topps Football for a buck a box (no one collected football I was told.) My other big purchase was a copy of The Trader Speaks and Sports Collectors Digest. I found an ad by George Lyons (Jeffrey's Dad) that offered 50 different T206s for $25.00. I sure wish I had ordered more.
