When I was a kid, I read Fleming's "Unforgettable Season", which is still my favorite baseball book. That book was a compliation of newspaper articles from the 1908 pennant race, mainly from the NY Giants perspective. No other book can take you back to the deadball era like that one.

I am definitely not a NY sports fan, but the characters from that book (Mattewson, McGraw, Donlin, The Iron Man, Dummy Taylor etc) have always stuck with me. I probably never would have collected any T206 cards if I had not read that book.

Anyway to get to the point, I started T206 collecting by getting the NY Giants team because of "Unforgettable Season". Ever since getting most of the NY players, I just buy random cards I like.

I have absolutely no chance of finishing the full T206 set. Even if I did, I find big-time set builing to be more stressful than fun (I'm a little OCD already and don't need to add another compulsion!).
