Underappreciated sets

[Al C.risafulli]

Definitely in agreement on 1934 Delong and T205.

Some others I really like:

-T207: just a fascinating set, really hard to find in nice condition, with varying levels of scarcity throughout the set. A little dull-looking and missing some key players, but if we're (rightly) going to count Obaks for their beauty and scarcity, we could count T207s for their scarcity and condition issues.

-T202: These are beautiful, and have a wide range of stars. I honestly think that the reason they're so overlooked is because there's not a sensible way to put them in order. We're collectors. Does this card go under "C" for "Cobb," or "J" for "Jennings," or should I file it by the picture in the middle? How do I list it on eBay? I've owned an auction house for ten years and I STILL don't really know the best way to title these.

-1938 Goudey: this set has a million questions, starting with "Why did you make the same set twice?" and then continuing on through the premiums, the lack of obvious players that should've been in the set, the fact that it's numbered as a continuation of the 1933 Goudey set, and a host of other questions that may never be answered.

-Anything too big to be graded. Supplements, premiums, oversized cards - they're all overlooked because they can't go on a registry, and there are some beautiful pieces there, and some really scarce ones as well.
