I was thinking the same thing.

I agree with an earlier poster that the demand for 1914/1915 Cracker Jacks will increase due to the 100-year anniversary (is the company promoting this next year?).

Will 2014 be the year that the T206 bubble bursts when collectors finally realize how abundantly available and commonly altered they are?

Maybe some but not me. I collect m101-4/5s and they are mostly ice cold--tepid on their best day (except for Ruth). I hope it stays that way for the next several years.

Not sure if I agree that "anniversaries" of popular sets cause prices to increase?

Did this happen with t206?

I suppose more awareness could bring more collectors into the fray hence driving up prices...dunno?

Not really. T206 prices had been very strong well before 2009.

Prices of T206 subjects with scarcer backs climbed in 2013 and will continue to do so as more and more collectors pursue the 5K+ card superset, back runs of particular subjects, and back subsets. T206s with common backs rose modestly in 2013, with high grade hall of famers, southern leaguers and tougher commons (e.g. Dahlen) appreciating most. Everything else I own was flat to down.

We T206 collectors have always known that they are abundant. That was part of their appeal for me. I knew that with enough time and money I could finish the set, excluding Wagner of course.

Actually, I was also quite naive 12 years ago. I actually thought that one day I could own a Doyle, NY Nat'l.
