Yes, I have never owned one of the OBs, but that is a draw for me.

T210 is a terrific set and a lot of fun to chase. I would say right now new to market cards are few and far between. But prices have depressed as mentioned so now is a great time to pick up a few examples. Next year I will have been working on the set for a decade. I anticipate it taking a couple more!

I collect them both and have founds ways to focus within each.

For T210, I collect Houston and Galveston. Although series 3 cards are relatively common, the orange border cards and the red border cards of the guys who also have orange borders are pretty tough. I've been looking for the same few cards (e.g., Burch from Houston) for a few years.

For T212, I collect players connected to the San Jose/Santa Clara area of California. Attached are a few of my favorite 1909s.

I'm currently looking for T212 Vernon Tigers, along with the only T212 Los Angeles Angel I don't already have; the 1909 Howard without the frame on the back.

Unfortunately, the supply seems to have completely dried up, at least on ebay, except for the usual sellers with overpriced BINs.

I'm also on the lookout for T210 San Antonio Bronchos, but except for an occasional orange-border, I've only ever seen one, an Alexander I found on ebay in 2010, from a seller in either Nova Scotia or New Brunswick.
