if you need a prescription...you'll have to come and see me first...try advil or tylenol first. |

Kind of off-topic, but I like the big sweaters too. One card I hope to pick up some time is the 1922 Eastern Exhibit of Joe Bush. He has got a great looking sweater on that card. |

I think we all know the prescription, and the only prescription is more cowbell. |

Speaking of baseball sweaters, below are two interesting photos of MLB players and friends on a hunting/fishing trip. Notice some are wearing their player team sweaters! Joe Bush is on top fishing wearing his Yankees sweater, and the guy on his knee in the bottom photo is Bob Shawkey. The photos are from Eddie Collins' photo album. |

Joe Bush was pretty fashion forward. I wouldn't mind owning a sweater like that. |

David -- there are two team sweaters in the bottom picture -- the guy on the left also has one on. Any idea who that is? |

I know this may be a naive question - and i think this may have been discussed before in a previous thread (so i will apologize in advance if this is redundant)- but how many cards comprise a "complete" set? Is it 520 of the 524? |

IMO...I have always viewed the T206 set as 520 + 3 or 4. The most optional of the 4 being the Doyle Nat'l (again my opinion). But I don't think you can consider the set complete without the Demmitt and O'Hara. |

My two cents on the subject, I only feel the set is complete at 524 and only at 524. The other cards (Plank, Magie, Doyle & Wagner) although very expensive and quite unobtainable to most of us do exist, ignoring or them or omitting them from a checklist due to rarity and or price makes no sense. |

Short prints should obviously be included, but the minute you include errors and variations, you leave yourself open to a never-ending quest for every miscut, misprint, or any other type of variation. |

wouldn't that coincide then with the 520 that T206-Collector had said it was referred to in earlier days? (if I have that correct) |

Magie and Doyle are not "printing variations." They are legitimate, corrected errors in what text should read on the bottom fronts of the cards. Sweeney missing the B because the red ink dried up is not an error that was corrected. It is an unintended "printing variation." Cards missing ink are totally different than spelling errors or corrected team city origins. |

Consider if a manufacturer inadvertently leaves a player out of a set and during production introduces that card. Alternatively, consider a card that the manufacturer included that they decided they wanted to stop producing mid-way through for whatever reason (say the player objects to endorsing tobacco products). You would only included card #2 as part of the complete set? |
