I have to agree that I like the action shots a lot more. But over the years, the portraits have really caught up. For example, if I could choose one of Cobb's four, I would take his red portrait over the other three any day of the week.
I also think the portraits are really nice for display purposes of Hall of Famers. The action shots of commons are way better. Bob Ewing and Pattee are two of my favorites. Sorry for the big scan of my Ewing! Best, AndyH

Depends on the player. Lajoie bat and Mathewson dark cap are much better than the portraits (Mathewson doesn't even look like him). On the other hand, Johnson portrait blows away the pitching (which also doesn't look like him), and I like the Young portrait far more than the other poses. Cobb I have a marginal preference for the portraits over the bat off. And so on.

Lajoie with Bat is my favorite T206 but I tend to like the portraits better.

I just think there's more "bench depth" for the portraits--thinking of Lobert, and Wiltse, and Durham, and Kling and on and on and on....
