How To Mess Up Some Nice T206s - 1908 Cubs Display

[Chris-Counts]

I vote for No. 5: I don't like the display, and they messed the cards up. If you're going to destroy cards, at least create a good layout. The Cubs collection looks like someone spent about two minutes thinking it out.

Here's a piece I picked up a few years ago. I'm guessing someone — likely a woman — spent an entire winter hunched over a wood stove stitching this thing together. I wonder if she smoked Turkey Red cigarettes? I love how the colors are mixed up ...

Sorry to break it to you, Chris, but, that was made in 2012 by some punk in Girard, Ohio

"The backs of the cards, along with a short bio of the player and some stats, have coupons for the cigarette who pack they were in; Sweet Capital, Piedmont and Polar Bear"


I didn't know that T206's had player bios and stats on the back.... that's news to me.

Just read that too. Never have seen that before. Perhaps these are reprints too.

Also, he has never sold any t206 in the past.
Me thinks photo and cards are reprints.
