Thanks everyone for the kind words and help. I will be sure to check those links out. Im not planning on doing the set. I just want to add a few T cards to my collection. My next set will be in the 50s-early 70s.
But I've been watching the Ken Burns baseball series and am learning a lot about the early years of baseball. So it's kind of peaked my interest to get a few early cards. |

Congrats!
I am doing the same thing, getting rid of my (non-PC) modern and acquiring mostly vintage. I picked up my first two T206s at a show today. They are certainly "well loved," but it is history I can hold and both cost me $10 total.

So probably shouldnt have read this thread as I appear to be developing an itch. I have always been a "pre war" guy but that is the Vietnam War.
I'm sure most of you have seen this but I found this which seems like a good starting point. http://www.t205.org/

I thought they looked great!! (what was there and left of them). They are survivors. You should scan them and post them here. I assure you there are a lot of members who collect cards exactly like that.
As for the gold borders, I have always said T205s are some of the best looking cards in the hobby. Eventually I will get another Cobb....one of my all time fave cards.
