If you want to learn about the players of that era, may I suggest the SABR books Deadball Stars of the National League and its American League counterpart. Not all the players are in the T206 set, but many are.

Matt, kids LOVED the cards of “the baseball men”. There are countless articles from newspapers about how kids are mobbing smokers and begging for cards etc. There is at least one thread on net54 with several of such papers. These cards were an absolute sensation.
There is no set with more history than t206. Hundreds of players, from numerous leagues. 20+ hall of famers. 15+ different advertisements (if you include t213-1, t215–1, Cobb back, and blank back which of course is not an ad), and color, factory and series variations of each. Error cards, color variations, numerous posses for certain players. Before diving in, I highly suggest you read Scot Reader’s treatise on t206, as well as several other books and articles (Derek Hogue has a great book), and really learn about some of the players, teams, card variations, etc. Here is a link to Scot’s treatise: http://www.oldcardboard.com/t/t206/i...al-edition.pdf Last edited by Rhotchkiss; 12-29-2019 at 10:52 PM. |
