My T206 Highlander Collection

Posted By: David B

Hi,
I have been putting together a T206 Highlander team set and finally got around to scanning all the cards. To be in my set it either had to grade a 6 or have a uncommon back. If it had a rare back it had to grade at least a 2. Only 3 cards don't follow the rules, always looking to upgrade them. My favorite cards are the PSA 4 Hal Chase Blue Port. Piedmont 460 Factory 42 and the SGC 70 Chase Dark Cap Sovereign 460. I have an example of all 3 Sovereign's, all 3 American Beauty's, Uzit, Brown Hindu, both Cycle's, Tolstoi, EPDG and others. Many of the cards have none graded higher with their front/back combo. Thanks to many board members for helping me put this togehter. Please have a look at the link below. Thanks for allowing me to share these here, my family looks at me with a sad blank stare when I show them.

I took a few minutes & looked at your cards. Nice job. Its a very nice display. One question though, now what is your next T206 goal? Just curious, because I too am working on a T206 team set myself (not of the Highlanders). I have found that it seems to be the same players always appearing, but in a way I guess that makes it fun & more rewarding when it is finally complete.

Nice cards

Congratulations David. That's really a great collection and the variety of backs and the grades are really impressive.

Besides to keep upgrading the set, I have been thinking about doing the same thing with the T206 Red Sox team or doing a Yankee T205 team set. I'm going to have to wait a while to recover some funds though.

Thanks to everybody for the kind words.

Thanks Mike for the warning lol

I've been waiting for a couple of board members to sale thier Chase Blue Portraits. The Red Hindu back and the Ghost/Blank front are some of my favorite T206's I have seen. I would love to have them in my collection but sure there is a long line of people that would to.

Jeff - I dont mind you looking at my backs but don't touch (insert smiley here)

Hey David,

Thanks for sharing the scans...I just recently bought a Chase w/ Trophy from you off the bay for my Highlander set and can't wait to add the rest of Chase's cards from the set.


Best to you,

Shawn
