After collecting 49 T206 cards, and viewing every card in the set, I have realized some cards have very interesting backgrounds with buildings or stadiums in them. Which card(s) with these buildings/stadiums do you find the most unique? Please feel free to share the images of the card.

Here's a few T206's with stadium backgrounds. I think my favorites are Al Burch, Del Howard and Orval Overall (the Joss is no longer mine).

This one always looked out of place to me...doesn't look much like a "baseball" related building in the background

That building is really weird-looking - kind of Stonehenge-ish.

Now if somebody could identify those buildings that would be interesting!
Forget about the flags on stadiums. Can anyone identify the building on Joss, Burch or Clancy? |

Obviously not a T206 but wouldn't it be great to have a big League Ballpark in your back yard.

@TheBig6 Although it is not a t206 card, it is an obviously beautiful card!

Some more background structures......always wondered about the Ed Willetts double towers. Any ideas as to what they are?

Same here! I purchased a Willetts card a few months back and I thought at first someone drew on the card. I wonder what it is.

Willetts 2 pole could be the very first set of high power lines coming probably from spike shannon's industrial power plant

I actually didn't see them as towers. I thought they were gaps between vertical boards in a fence that ran about as high as his glove. Very interesting either way.
