T206 Reference / Reflections.....Tuesday Nite Trivia

[Sean]

Hey Ted, when I was a kid my first set was the 1965 Topps. My favorite card was Yastrzemski. He was posed as if he was about to catch a fly ball. As an eight year old I didn't realize that it was just a pose. I really thought that the photographer caught him in the act of making a catch.

I noticed that in the T206 set, Mitchell is in a very similar pose, so that is one of my favorites:

The Merkle throwing is another favorite, particularly this Brown Lenox, which seems to be a 1 of 1:

The Cobb bat off shoulder is one of the prettiest cards in the set IMO, and of course its a Cobb:

And I'll finish my post with a Plank to keep yours company:

Thanks guys for posting your favorite T206's.

Another one of my favorite T206's is Frank Delehanty. Here are 4 cards from my Delehanty run representing the "A-B-C-D" connection.
The significance of the A-B-C-D connection (350 series) is read in thread.... http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=90139


.




Furthermore,
American Lithographic continued this A-B-C-D connection into the T205 set. Thirty-two T205 subjects were printed with American Beauty,
Broad Leaf, Cycle, and Drum backs. For more info on this, refer to thread.... http://www.net54baseball.com/showthr...=195845&page=4

Huggins is my favorite of these T205 A-B-C-D sub-sets......

.




Still searching for Huggins with a DRUM back. Any help in finding this card is enormously appreciated, and there will be a reward.

Also, trying for an A-B-C-D Quadruplicate run with the T205 Lobert. Looking for a DRUM card of him.
