Thanks! I'm casually working on this set as inexpensive examples come my way. I'm really not even a boxing fan per se, but the artwork is stellar.

That's how I started. I was gifted a lot of random T cards and I liked a lot of the history themed cards in it. There were 7 T220 silvers in it, and I thought they were kind of funky at first. Who wants to collect cards of scantily clad dudes? And now I'm a boxing guy. I collect T42's and know no ornithology. The T card art is just so good, it doesn't matter what the subject is, I've come to collect pretty much all of them.

That's the problem: you see examples of the artwork and you just get hooked on all of the issues.

They knew what they were doing!

Maybe there's nicotine on the cards?



Reminds me of Robin Williams' old line: I give the pigeons my methadone so they come back.

Here's a pretty T card and new pickup, the Fighting Dentist puts me at 132/250 in the T225-1 set.

Similar thing happened to me. Bought a box of T cards from a neighbor. T218, 219, 220 and a bunch of other random T cards.
