T206 Poll

[brass_rat]

For those that can put a name to every image, you might try the following exercise -- how many names can you write down straight from memory (without seeing images)? (For the record, I cannot recognize all of the player images, so I haven't tried this more difficult task.)

(Unrelated note -- but also a fun exercise -- set a timer and write down all 50 states in 5 minutes.)

Also, can you do the same on T205, or T207?

I got 532 T206s... Hmmmm...

Amazed at how many people claim they can name all of them... I'm sure I could get all the HOFs, but all those hundreds of commons? Not in a million years

When you put them together one at a time, you'd be shocked at all you retain. I would say I could name 90%+, which i thought was closer to 100% than to i'm not in that deep. I see the T206 (I accumulated a low grade set of 520, but not beaters) as a relationship set. It's not just a set you fill in a check list but one where you continue to learn about both the issuers and the players. It's probably the only set I have that I would still look for a low/mid grade lot to upgrade. Usually when I finish a set, it's good enough.
