Default 1909-1911 players who didn't get their own T206 card?

Posted By: Pennsylvania Ted

I first proposed my theory regarding the T206 Plank about a year ago and the more I delved into it, I realized it included more A's
players (Eddie Collins, Coombs, etc.) and Pittsburg players. It's based on the story of the American Caramel Co.....it's founder.....
and, its begining in Philadelphia.

For more insight into this story....I have provided the following links:

Here is the Net54 thread link......

And, my follow-up with this thread......

Regarding the T206 Wagner....I cannot go that far to say that the contention between ACC and ATC involved the Honus. This
remains a mystery; however, he has four cards depicting him in the T216 set.....I have seen his picture in a 1950's Pittsburgh
yearbook with a lit cigar in his hand.....so, is his anti-tobacco story a myth ? I'll leave it to someone else to resolve.
