Perhaps start with this book, look at all of the T206 card fronts, and figure out which images appeal to you the most. From there, seek examples which present nicely and are in in VG to EX condition.

As others have mentioned, avoid the fads and pay attention to market price. That way, you can recoup the purchase price if you decide to sell them down the road.

Just my two cents. There are countless ways to collect T206...no "one right way" to go about it.

Best regards,

Eric
