Default M116

M116 cards fall into the underappreciated category--they have a somewhat uniform look like the very popular Cracker sets, but are mostly subdued pastels and have just never grabbed a lot of collector attention.

That said, they are a great set with plenty of desirable cards, and one of the vintage sets that is chock full of various levels of scarcer cards, and an issue where discoveries are still being made (like the E121 series of 80 and associated sets, just to a lesser degree). Here is a Smith card with Boston team variation that was just discovered about 4 years ago, and is still one of a kind.

One of my favorite sets. My Pittsburgh collection would look a lot better with that autographed Wagner though!

Agree with Paul. Wood is by far my favorite. But I like Speaker too.
