Ed McCollumearly on, I was trying to get one of each of the 16 backs for my small T206 collection (knowing I'll never get the Cobb back). I contacted Barry Sloate (sp) about any he might have and he had a Chance with a Carolina Brights back, one of only two backs I didn't have. But he wouldn't sell it to me unless I also bought another card he had, becasue as a collector, he said he knew I wouldn't just turn around and sell it. I agreed to $130 for the Chance and $60 for the other card.
The O'Leary hands on knees with the Broadleaf 460 series back is now the favorite card in my collection. If looked at as an investment, that $60 six years ago was the best money ever spent.
And yes, Art, you'll get first crack at it if I ever decide to sell.
