I actually hear the girls want a Sovereign Johnson... So they can brag to their friends.

That said, in India with a population over 1.25 billion it is safe to assume the Hindu Johnson is also quite popular.


(No offense intended to our Indian friends)

I hope you were looking at the Sports Cards Plus auction last night. I saw some T206s with common backs bringing absolutely crazy money...

Man, there were a TON of T206's going last night.

Not sure if prices are going up, but they certainly aren't going down.

many of the T206 cards in the wheatland Auction brought good money. Last night also.

I have found that T206s are somewhat seasonal. Not dramatically, but on both the T205 and T206 sets when I was working on them I remember thinking...gosh, they're going up...but then they would settle down. Rarities and key HOFers somewhat less.

I agree with this statement. I anecdotally notice slight drop in demand / interest at the end of the baseball season until early spring. We are in the heart of football season right now so a lot of casual / part-time collectors aren't thinking about baseball cards.
