AFFORDABLE T206 sub-sets you can COMPLETE

[Archive]

With the exception of the SOVEREIGN set, the other 6 sets shown here are not completely defined
as to exactly how many cards were printed with their respective back.

The HINDU set is the 2nd most well defined......in that a good majority of the 156 cards (except for
Lundgren, Magie, Plank, and Wagner) in the 150 Series were printed with this back. Brian Weisner is
our expert in this department and he has confirmed 100+ T206's with this HINDU back (which inclu-
des 37 of the Southern Leaguers). Therefore, I hope he will chime in with more definite info.

Anyone, who chooses the challenge of completing a POLAR BEAR, or TOLSTOI, or an OLD MILL set is
breaking new ground and can provide the hobby with valuable information regarding which Subjects
were printed and which are the "No Prints".

RayB is pursuing an EPDG set and may chime in on how tough this set is.

Bill Brown (of Super-Set fame) has been diligently working on an American Beauty set and I hope Bill
will chime in with his info. and experience collecting this very tough back.


................1st..........................2nd.. ........................3rd....................... .....4th

................5th............................6th ..........................7th

One sub-set I haven't mentioned is a CYCLE set. Lee Behrens has been putting together a CYCLE 460
set and perhaps he has branched out to include the CYCLE 350 cards. Very tough, indeed.

I had a great experience completing a 410 card SOVEREIGN set. My current T206 project is an American
Beauty 460 series set. And, although I figure there are only 75-100 of these backs, I am having a very
tough time finding them. I'm approx. 1/2 of the way complete.

I wish anyone GOOD LUCK....who tries to COMPLETE any of these sets.
