One of the most aesthetically under-appreciated cards in the T206 set is the Nap Rucker portrait. He's not famous, but he was one hell of a pitcher. This is one I'd love to upgrade.

That is one of the best looking T206s I've seen.

I really like the Rucker portrait too as well as the Dougherty portrait.



I think T206 portraits in general are the best looking cards in my opinion. When you line them up (especially against that black SGC background) they're absolutely stunning.



I tend to stick to T206 portraits but I do collect George Bell (hands above head) cards just because I love the look.

I can't believe I'm posting the first 33 Goudey Ruth, or possibly even the first 33 Goudey.

Oh ya, Zach, I agree with you completely. I love the entire set, but the portrait cards are by far my favorites in the set.
