T206 REFERENCE....what backs are your favorite(s), and do you collect runs of them ?

Exactly 14 years ago this month, I broke up my variable-back T206 set (521 cards) to seek the ultimate T206 run of an all - PIEDMONT set.
PIEDMONT Mission accomplished just 11 months later, I then continued on an all - SOVEREIGN set. At the same time, I was also collecting
T206's for an all - SWEET CAPORAL Factory #30 set.

I completed the SOVEREIGN set (408 cards) in less than a year. The SWEET CAPORAL Factory #30 set took me 10 years to complete (468
cards) when I finally acquired the Eddie Plank card.

One nice feature which these 3 sets have in common, is you don't have to get the Demmitt and O'Hara (St Louis variations). Furthermore, the
Southern Leaguers were not printed with SOVEREIGN or this SWEET CAPORAL backs.

And, here is my favorite T206 card in each of these 3 sets..... WOW ! all three of these cards are graded. Ted has gone over to the "dark side"
