[Leon]

Hey Dan
I can't remember the first one but boy oh boy do I have some pictures of some of those old shows and rooms. I will try to dig some out and share with the board later today.

Jack Warhop, I was really excited when I read about his home run connection with Ruth!

That would be really cool Leon! I would love to see them! Could bring back some fond memories.

[T206Collector]

I got this pair for $500 in the summer of 1997. The guy had a cigar box with a couple dozen raw T206s that his grandfather had left him, and he was looking to generate some dollars for a trip to Las Vegas he was about to take. He shoulda kept the cards, but I've taken very good care of them ever since...

Nice Mathewson & Bender !!!

Mine was this Bill Hallman, still have it as well.

Foley White. Bought it through Teletrade around 1995. Didn't buy my 2nd for more than a decade but I've made up for lost time.

Had 3 to 4 t206 cubs in poor/ fair condition that I bought from a vendor at an annual festival in a small Midwest town. Later traded them to board members for E121 cards. No more t206 in my collection.

[Piratedogcardshows]

A Piedmont Ed Killian Portrait.Still on of my favorite poses.I love the Dracula collar.

[Gradedcardman]

My first was in the late 70's. I was a Dodger fan so it was a Whitey Alperman Brooklyn. Nice !!

[Tomman1961]

Snodgrass was my first in 1980 in NJ at the Meadowlands Shows. My favorite buy is/was Mathewson with white cap at Parsippany in 1983(?). $15 what would grade about a "2"

[scmavl]

Solly Hofman, an SGC graded card (30 or 40). I just wanted one as a type card, sold it before I even thought about seriously collecting T206.

[ZernialFan]

1st T206 and cigarette card I purchased around 1990 from the owner and promoter of the Chantilly Show in VA/DC area when he had a card shop in
Charlottesville, VA. I bought it just because I did not have anything that old at the time. Did not acquire another until around 2007 when a friend and member of Net54 pested me into collecting T206 and T205. The Steinfelt was raw at the time and I had it graded sometime later before 2007.

[BCauley]

Mine would be a John McGraw finger in the air that I picked up off of some small sports card auction site about 14 years ago. Still have that one!

[Blitzu]

Mine was Kleinow catching (New York) sweet caporal back. Thought it was the best looking card in the series when I bought it. Still have it too.

Edit: I also still think it's one best looking t206's to this day.
