Awesome! I started a set about 6 years ago but gave up after a dozen cards. It's still one of my favorite sets of all time. The Joss tribute card is one of the best cards of all time.
I agree too, that adding bio's was innovative and in fact, I think that makes T205 the first "true" baseball cards as opposed to just being pictures of baseball players. I really wish they would have done the entire 400 subject set. That would have truly been awesome. As far as the Hoblitzell goes, personally, I would consider the set complete without it. There are many back variations, including different cigarette brands, so unless you're doing a complete master set of every single back variation, I personally don't think you need this card to be 100% complete. Anyway, congrats on a great achievement! It makes me want to start this set again. |

Welcome to the club. I also have all cards except the Hobby No Stats. It is by far my favorite set.

Congrats on finishing the set!! I don't know much about this set other than the information and great pics shared on here. I'm going to have to do a search on Hoblitzell to learn more about that one.

Another long time T205 guy here, finished my base set two years ago, but have been upgrading a little, gathering the back variations (i have the front variations) and slabbing them with SGC.
Frank, I see your set on the registry every time I update mine. (and of course a few other guys here too ![]() Congrats for getting them all, its an awesome set! Way to go!

+1. It just doesn't get any better than not only completing the set but also having your son by your side while doing it. And if I have said it once I have said it a hundred times, I still think the T205 set is one of, if not THE, best looking sets in the hobby. Of course we all have our opinions, and that is mine. Congratulations on your completion!!
