Dan McCarthyI'm currently working on the T205 and T3 sets, primarily because I think the art on both of those sets is gorgeous. I'd highly recommend going for the T205 set (T3s are wicked expensive, anywhere from $50-$150 for low-grade commons and $1k+ for guys like Mathewson and Cobb). T205 isn't the easiest set in the world, it has a few variations and is ~200 cards, but it makes it slightly more challenging than a 25 or 50 card set. Also, the large quantity of HOFers makes it nice - you can pick up low grade versions of tougher cards for relatively cheap - I've gotten an ultra poor Tris Speaker for $26, and Mathewson, Johnson, and Joss for ~$100 each. If you need to have every single variation it makes it hard due to a Hoblitzell that's around $8k and an Irving Wilhelm that's like $3k, but if you are satisfied with each front it's definitely doable.
