There were 389 different players featured in the T206 set. Frill was the 16th one to die. A lot of sad stories -- some known and some unknown -- are contained in this set.

Default Back run...UZIT
So if I went on a John Frill back run, I'd have to really get into the nitty gritty with some difficult backs. Hmmm

I see TonyO has John Frill up on the B/S/T. I’m considering going on a John Frill “back run”. How difficult is that with Mr Frill? That Uzit is a “one of a kind”, I gather.

Kevin

With the exception of the CYCLE 460, LENOX and the UZIT cards, the other 10 backs are not too tough.

The tough Red HINDU and PIEDMONT 460 (Factory #42) backs were not printed.


Good Luck....go for it, it's a fun run.
