Default W515-2

I love my complete set of W515-2 "The Little Wonder Picture Series" ...which are MUCH rarer than their W515-1 counterpart. And the number of HOFers in the set is staggering!

Ben, Your Strip Card Set is Really Cool...
Love the Brother Duo Cards and how some of the others have a Portrait Look, as opposed to how some have evolved inta an alien species Look.
Whitey Witt's small arms & even smaller body, ta go wit his Big Head is Classic!
Cobb's Look takes an effort just ta gaze at...

And Your Mr. Speaker's Shift, What I would Consider an Excellent Ghost Card, is a Keepr All Day Long... Very Cool indeed Sir!

I wish that was my strip card set. I just quoted the owners post saying how cool the vivid colors are.

Thank you for the comment on my Speaker. I bought it because of the awesome print offset.

I absolutely agree with you. I love strip cards. Granted there are some ugly ones but there are plenty of ugly regular issue cards as well. IMHO they are underrated. It's not like they're reprints.

A member here just sold me my first strip card. W516 Cicotte.
On average how does this set and others from the era compare in rarity to T206? I know they haven't been as coveted and preserved as The Monster but how does the survival rate compare?

As only a guess I have to think, given what I have seen, there are more T206s overall than W516s. As for a specific player it might be different.

and a new pickup...

One of my first great buys from ebay included two W560 two-color HOFers. I subsequently sold them. Having a bit of sellers regret, I picked up this devil's-beard Freddie Lindstrom.
