100th anniversary of T201's....show and/or tell us of your cards

Great set - I like these cards and especially the lower prices of them! I am about 7 or 8 shy of a complete set - maybe with this being the 100th anniversary I should focus on knocking off the final cards I need...

Ted, did these cards originally come pre-folded in the packs? In your picture with the Cobb, it looks as if they were folded already. But many of the cards look as if they have never been folded.

I'm curious to get your take on this.

Thanks,
Scott

I don't know much about T201's but don't miscuts show us that these cards were folded prior to cutting? Maybe Mr. Luckey will post his Mathewson I speak of.

Of course -- you'd be all mis-aligned if you didn't fold before the cut. Many of the T201s posted above (including my Wheat) show a change in angle at the fold line that can be attributed to a fold-then-cut process. If you just cut them straight and then later tried to fold them (1) you'd have to fold them each individually, which is more costly; and (2) the folds wouldn't fit perfectly top-to-bottom.

Without a doubt this is the easiest T-card set to complete. I recommend it for everyone because there is a "realistic" chance of completing the set after you start collectingit. Believe it or not there is a feeling of accomplishment when you complete the set.

Set a goal and see if you can pick up the set for 30% under the going price of the set. The challenge would be to take your time to complete the set and be patient in the process. I'm working on putting together a second set now and it's almost as fun as putting the first set together.

My only example. Sorry, no back scan.

Quality control was not the greatest...

As mentioned, a great set to complete. Especially, while trying to tackle the monster. Here is a quick glimpsed of the set (the rest of my set is graded)....
