My First T-206 Christy Mathewson

[pherbener]

Congrats on the Matty!! I live just outside of Factoryville, Pa. where he was born and am a big fan and collector of his stuff. Good luck on your quest!

I like that you called this thread "My First T-206 Christy Mathewson". This shows that, while you say that are only planning to get one, deep down inside you know that there will be more in your future.

Nice addition for $60.

Thank you, Ben and Bryan.

They'll be a Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson and Cy Young in the future.

I now understand what it means to get the "bug."

I also observed the number of T-206 reprints. They are an annoyance.

When I search for Mickey Mantle cards, I also notice the number of reprints for sale.
