My T206 fascination started with my 1st T206......Hal Chase (blue portrait).......which I acquired at the famous Willow Grove Show in 1981.

I put together a 521 card set (including MAGIE) by the mid 1990's. After which, I sold this set to a friend of mine, circa 1997.

In 2005, I acquired a large collection of T206's (including most of the rare backs). I completed this 2nd set (520 cards) by Jan 2006.

Then, I decided to get adventurous....45% of this set was composed of PIEDMONT cards. So, I sold (or traded) the Non-PIEDMONT cards,
and set off to achieve an ALL - PIEDMONT set. Circa November 2006, this all-PIEDMONT set was complete consisting of 519-cards [MINUS
Wagner, Plank, Joe Doyle, and the Demmitt & O'Hara St. Lo. variations (Polar Bear cards)].

The 4th set...regardless of the fact that there are only 408 cards...was quite a challenge. I had to figure out the numerous NO-PRINTS while
putting together a complete ALL - SOVEREIGN set. I achieved this mission by November 2007.

And the 5th set. While the SOVEREIGN set has 122 No-Prints, a SWEET CAPORAL Factory #30 set has just 55 No-Prints. A near-complete
SWEET CAP set (467 cards) was achieved by circa 2009. It took me approx. 6 years to acquire this Plank card. I consider my SWEET CAP set
complete without the Wagner.

Ted I might be wrong but wouldn't an all Sovereign set be 406 cards?
