T213 near set break in REA

[RCMcKenzie]

Sounds good, TBOB. Enjoy the T213 chase again. I've had fun collecting T213's. I remember reading about that find on here years ago.

I never did learn whose collection that was in REA. They had a nice one, and almost found all 185 cards.

Rob, how close to completion are you now?

Only 3 left to go, Sean, thanks. From that Collect auction of 550 cards, the only one they had that I didn't already have was a very low grade Baker NY. I was able to get it cheap, but still need to upgrade some cards like the Baker NY and Thomas Phila.

Does anyone have one of those available? Please Pm me.

I ran across this thread again. It's amazing how much the prices for the T213-2 set have climbed in value just over the last 2 years. I still can't believe I somehow missed this auction from November 2022 and shake my head over how low the prices were compared to what the cards in this scarce set sell for in February 2025. I know that because of the basically same artwork as the much more prevalent T206s and the fact the T213-2s have a glossy front which makes them condition sensitive, that the demand is not nearly as strong for these cards but the chase is everything. The scarce to rare team variations make it a maddening set to complete.

If Steve or TBob can't complete the t213-2 set, it's not really do-able. I learned recently that Andy T213 came close, but no cigars.

I'm not giving up, but I'm also not optimistic about all 3 types. I need Rhodes for type 1 and Cobb red for Type 3. I don't want to say what I need for type 2, but some of you know. GL
