T3 prices soaring in higher grades?

I agree! Especially when you consider that many of the T3 cards share the same image as a T206
And w/ the T3's you get a full version as opposed a cropped up version.
Here's a similar (not identical) version of Bill Burns

Here's a better example of Mordecai Brown

Bill Burns image is so nasty it's better smaller in this case...

First of all, if I ever win the Lotto, I'm putting together a T-3 set This standard-sized reprint set just isn't enough, LOL.

Secondly, what is the single highest-graded example of a T-3?

Chris, you don't have to win a lottery to collect T3's. You can get some presentable low graded commons for $100-$200
So one here & one there, they can add up to a nice collection.

When I was collecting the set a few years ago, PSA had graded 2 PSA-8's, & both were Ty Cobb
I've seen them both, 1 in person at a National at PSA's booth & they were awesome.
Not sure if any other 8's have joined the Cobb party recently.

That sounds a bit like "a million here, a million there and you're suddenly talking about good money."

No, but if you want the whole set in fairly high grade, it sure would help

[Jay Wolt]

Indeed!

A couple relatively high-grade ones:

Not the most pricey but my favorite common pose.
