Are You A T206 Collector?

[HRBAKER]

I have 100+ but haven't bought one in years. So I guess the answer is was but not currently.

[t206blogcom]

Finished 518/518, but have 601 total.

[teetwoohsix]

Yes, they're the only cards I collect

Hopefully one day I'll at least get to 518, with possibly most of the backs represented.

Well, 522 would be great but at the pace I'm going I'll be lucky to hit 400 by the time I'm 70

LOL! same here.. I'm averaging about 1 card a mo. (in SGC 60 or better) I now have 35 and will be 40 in Dec. I've been debating on buying some SGC 50 cards to help speed up the process..

[3-2-count]

Yes. HOF's only though (which includes Hal Chase)

[jp1216]

'Finished' @ 520 - now picking up upgrades from time to time.

Yes, I bought my first five T206s at a flea market when I was eight and have been hooked ever since!

I accumulated 40-50 when I was about 13 or 14 (back in the early 70's), and they still seem very great to me. I now have about half the set, but I am not trying to complete it.

Same boat here - should have a category of "have some but not an active / aggressive collector of them"

"There is no gray in this poll."

Am i the only one who found this sentence funny?

No, Mike I thought to myself, "at 53 the no gray rule knocks me out."

[Runscott]

I would hate to be missing half of my Johnson

[E93]

Yes, set, back run, and a few other odds and ends.

At this stage I would take gray, red, black, brown....whatever, but it ain't happening.

As for T206, I said yes, because I have around 30-45....but I only collect oddities, backs and any card I like. ...cause that's just the way I roll.

Haha - yeah, it should be: "There is no gray ON this poll."

[Rob D.]

Yes. Signed and unsigned.

[HOF Yankees]

yes for me, any T206 is a want

[EGreenwood]

Once upon a time, yes. Alas, I traded about 125 off. I still have my first - Oscar Stanage.

Erik Greenwood

[TNP777]

Yes. Well, I used to, anyway. Finished up the Superbas set, so I stopped. I may SGC 'em and grab some back variations when I do so.

[dabigyankeeman]

I voted YES in the poll, but I dont collect the T206 set. I have been collecting Yankees (Highlanders), and recently got the last card and now have the whole team set, which to me is all the FRONT different pictures, I dont worry about whats on the back.

The only other T206 card I have is a Christy Mathewson in poor shape due to it being a New York card.

+1

[ullmandds]

I answered no...because I no longer buy T206's. I still have maybe 10-15 of them in my collection...and I will most likely always have my green cobb.

I bought my first T206 in the early eighties...and T206's are what got me seriously into vintage in the early nineties...back collecting...and while I joke a lot about not liking them...show me one of Tony A's incredible portraits...or a super rare back...or a bizarre freak...and it still get's my juices flowing...how can it not?!

[lloydchristmas]

I will say yes, but have only just recently started.
