What's the difference in the backs, if any. Besides the color and fonts.

They were issued over 3 years 1909,1910,and 1911. The 1909 are the "Old English" font, the 1910 have slogans with "150 subjects" or "175 subjects", and the 1911 have player info and stats.

The cabinets have a number written on pencil on a blank back.

They are truly addictive cards.

the difference is: almost everybody loves...and collects T206...whereas the opposite is true of t212.

And it is the word almost that makes all the difference.

Peter, your statement that "almost everybody loves...and collects T206..." is a politician's stretch! 35% of the respondees to the current Net 54 poll re Who Collects T206 have indicated that they Do NOT collect T206!!

Sorry...the difference between t206 and t212 is that 2 of 3 vintage card collectors collect and love t206...while another poll will be necessary to determine that much fewer vintage collectors love and collect t212.

Thanks for the kind words guys, this really is a great set. I dare say in terms of beauty it's better overall than T206.

Also nice cards everyone.

That is such a killer image of all those Millers! I'm so glad I'm not needing that card to finish a set...LOL.
