I sold all of my small collection of T206s recently for a couple of reasons, but the main reason being that the set is so super popular. When I first became interested in the set, I felt like I was going in my own direction, apart from the mainstream (having first collected modern 1970+ cards long ago). Now T206 feels like the mainstream (maybe I read this board too much?

EPDG = 3-5X
Brown Hindu = 10-20X Broad Leaf 350 = 30-40X It's getting spendy out there in T206 back land. |

That is exactly how I feel. T206s were sort of my first taste with prewar cards, but I was soon drawn to more "unique" items. The 206s are a beautiful set, but they are all over the place and began to feel "too common" for me. Stuff like the Cravats pennants, E125s, or an oddball trade card certainly excite me far more than a rare back on a 206.
That said, I certainly am not knocking anyone else's taste or collecting preferences. I just prefer stuff a little rarer, a little more oddball. I'm sure a lot of 206 collectors would think my stuff is junk ![]() Chris

Im with Barry and Chris
![]() In my eyes, even the very rare T206 backs are common... compared to what a type collector seeks Broadleaf 460 or Drum back... pfft ![]() Last edited by fkw; 12-16-2011 at 08:57 PM. Reason: edited to add Chris |
