T3 team set finally complete! Let's see yours!

[scotty21690]

I started this team set several years back, but the last card I needed alluded me because of budget constraints and being outbid on some, and the past handful of years I've taken a hiatus from buying many cards to save up some money. I've started buying again over the past couple months and as a budget collector I'm thrilled to land this beauty, my 3rd Speaker (T206, E91C):





Gorgeous in person! It has a slight crease in the bottom right corner and a few pinholes but overall it's in nice shape.



Here they are all together:



(Top Left: Harry Lord, Top Center: Tris Speaker, Top Right: Bill Carrigan [Ad Back], Bottom Left: Harry Niles [Ad Back], Bottom Center: Amby McConnell, Bottom Right: Jake Stahl [thanks to Jason Carota for trading me this one way back])


Not many 26 year olds can say they have a complete T3 Turkey Red team set. One of the lone sets I've finished (unless you count E95; Carrigan/Cicotte/Lord), still working on my M116 [at 12 now] and 39' Play Ball [11/13] team sets.




Let's see your T3 Turkey Red team sets!!


Thanks for looking,

You completed your goal and have a beautiful team set as the reward.

I really like T3s and if any set could cause me to fall off the T206 wagon, it would be T3s.

I've had a few in hand and was close to pulling the trigger, but always talked myself out of the purchase. What can I say, the Monster has me in it's clutches.

Well done Scott! Those are some nice cards.

A goal completed is always a great thing! Congrats on completing the Team set. Any plans to go further within the set? It makes me want to pick one up I have always liked the issue.

[Zach Wheat]

Good job and great looking set. I have always liked T3's.

Very cool....and I love that they're raw!

[wolf441]

Great stuff. I've always wanted to do the Red Sox T3's. The red colors just seem to pop off the cards (same with the Cardinals players).

Well done, sir!!

When it comes to T3s pinholes are your best friend. Keeps the cost down in a big way. The Speaker is one of the more desirable Turkey Reds. Yours is right smart looking and the pukas don't do anything to take away from that. Good going on the BoSox subset.

Niles is always a tough T3 to find in really poor condition.

Yours isn't even close to mine.

Decades without UV protection keeps the red from popping too much.

I was under the impression that some speedster had stolen "home" on my card, but your card dashes that theory.

The hanger is in excellent condition though.

Whatever any serious buyer would pay for this is probably more than I did.
