This thread is for T206 collectors. Your monster number is the number of unique cards you own out of 524 with the following rules:

240 points for Honus Wagner
80 points each for Plank, Doyle NY NATL, and Magie
One point for everyone else.

The highest monster number is therefore 1000. Condition and back variations are not factors in your basic monster number.

If you have duplicates, they are considered 2nd sets. Each set you own has its own Monster number.

For example: If you currently have 555 total cards, including 36 duplicates and one triplicate and don't own any of the Big Four, your monster numbers are 518 for Set 1, 36 for Set 2, and 1 for Set 3.

Post your current monster number here, and I'll try and update the list every couple of days. Scans are more than welcome!

[StraightRaceCards]

Current monster number is 35!

Slow and steady, although picked up 3 new HOF’ers (Matty, McGraw, Marquard) since the last time I posted

[brianp-beme]

Does this mean that you are taking over the Monster thread, Bob? If so, welcome to the helm of the Monster train. All aboard!

Brian (bye Frank, my Kraken and EGGS threads will miss you)

[Andrew T206]

Monster number is currently 508.

Hoping to be done in the next month or so.

Unless a significant number of people (one perhaps) object, I'm up for it. I haven't missed a day yet in the Post-WWII gallery threads, so it's not like I have a life that will get in the way.

I object! (to someone objecting)

Have fun!

[Cmvorce]

My number is now 93. I made more progress this year than I realized!

[Steve D]

Bob,

Thank you for stepping up and accepting the challenge of keeping track of all the Monster Hunters out here.

[MR RAREBACK]

Awesome progress so quickly!

[tonyk1975]

I am at 52/520.

[bobsbbcards]

Congratulations, alywa, for getting to 520!!! Four more to go (or perhaps not)!

[Vintagedeputy]

I actually like T205s better than T206s and I only pick up T206s if I find them cheap or they come in a trade. You can put me down for a meager 5 cards. LOL!

I have made it to 326 with the arrival of this binder beauty, recently secured in a smooth transaction with Bpm0014. Thanks Brendan.

I’m just a victim of term limits. I had been on the forum for less than two months when I started this thread. I had no idea that it would have legs and now seeming immortality. Bob, I may be able to give you help, if needed, as I had to work out a few kinks to make my life easier. I’m still around. Good luck.

Thanks, Frank! I'm only the current custodian, since it's still your thread.

Congratulations, Yankees1964, for accomplishing your mission!!

[mullinsm]

Please adjust my total to 404. Maybe I'll eventually make it into the top 100.

[KCRfan1]

Bob please update me to 67.

Frank I hope the golf game is well and you are hitting them straight.

I would love to post picks, however I do not have a scanner.

[tonyo]

I'm also a beginner. 9 cards, 4 different. Some of you guys have collections I wouldn't dream of. I have enough trouble enjoying the few cards I have!

[puckpaul]

Hi , put me down for 600. Never had a chance to post. Did it the easier way, bought most of a set some years ago and added the O’Hara, Magie, and Demmitt and some others.

Paul

[bobsbbcards]

Welcome to the thread, Jim! I put you down for 4, but technically you have at least three sets going since you had doubles/triples.

And a mic drop for Paul for reaching 600?!? That's a heckuva Magie!!!

[rjackson44]

Down to 185😩😩

I'm curious - how old is everyone that collects t206? I'm 45. Obviously most (all?) original collectors of these cards would be dead. Presumably given the high profile of the Wagner, and the 70+ cards with HoFs in the set (Specifically Cobb, Young, Mathewson & Johnson), it will always(?) be relevant, but I'm just wondering does it lose relevance at some point (i.e. when we are all dead!)? My introduction to the set occurred sometime in the 80's - at a card show with my grandpa - I was a collector of contemporary cards at the time (no real interest anymore - except I do buy unopened packs from the 80's/90's every once in a while - to open). He saw the Tinker/Evers/Chance - and bought one of each (Tinker bat off, Evers Cubs on Jersey, Chance Yellow all in the 1-2 grade range). -There is a great Tinker/Evers/Chance thread out there by the way - some of you guys have some absolutely gorgeous, awesome cards. I think he paid like $100 for the 3 at the time (overpaid, I think). I've had an interest ever since, and have bought lots on Ebay over the years, but really picked up the pace this year (Somewhere over 200 now - I need to stop and organize and trade off some dupes).

[Scott L.]

I am now at 520 (518 in previous list).

[bobsbbcards]

Congratulations, Scott L.

I'm 62 years of age. I first saw T206 cards in the '70s at a card show, but I didn't buy one until I was in my upper 50s. I wish I had bought them when they didn't cost two arms and two legs.

[Natswin2019]

please update my monster number to 21. ive added 2 SLers and a johnny evers polar bear

[dacubfan]

Zero all sold off

[parkerj33]

600 set 1, 600 in set 2.

i am 54, and started buying these in earnest last summer (2021). i am proud that my first one ever was herzog boston from TedZ back in 2008 after becoming fascinated by all the minutiae and history of the set. Just took a while before i wanted to dive in.

[StraightRaceCards]

Been a good holiday season. Count is now 40 including another HOF'er!

[Cory]

Monster number now 322. Thanks to several forum members. Congrats to the the guys that recently "conquered" it.

[Mike Eisenbath]

My number is up to 226. Goal for the year was 260 (I added about 60 in 2022), but then I discovered some T205s, Wide Pens and Fine Pens that I really liked. Plus a couple of other oddball (for me) pre-war Cardinals cards.

Maybe I should focus better, but I lik the diversity! Good year!

Started another team subset recently and added 6 more so that should put me at 27 now I believe

[Vintageloz]

Hi

My number is now 25

Thanks

[bobsbbcards]

Bumping this thread back to the first page, so those of you who've acquired a card or two don't have to go looking for it.
