Every time I look at this card, I get the feeling of a perfect Saturday afternoon in June. I can almost smell the turf and hot dogs. I imagine an "old timey" sounding announcer giving the starting lineups.

I have always really liked this T206 McIntire card, and this scan makes me happy as it reminds me that I like them so much I have three of them.

And that Harry sure can-can dance.

I just discovered this card in a stack of Murads that I have not looked through since the housing bubble. No idea that I owned it... found money makes me happy.

When I go back and look at the pics in this thread, I smile a lot. Great stuff, guys.

As someone who loves big borders, shown a million times for a reason...

Leon, I like big borders too, as is evident on my E220 National Caramel card of Raymond Schmandt.

A regular, bigger size border E220 of Kopf is shown for comparison purposes.

Last edited by brianp-beme; 01-20-2023 at 12:58 PM. Reason: substituted smaller size scan so as to not overwhelm folks with the enormity of the borders on Schmandt
