That's pretty cool. I know the chase has always been what drives me in collecting.. I would be interested in knowing what you plan to do with your T206 collection.. sell it, save it for the kids? |

Congratulations on your accomplishment! Anyone who sticks it out to accomplish a collecting goal should be highly commended in my book, especially to complete the Monster T206! Enjoy the wonderful feeling! |

Rob- Very, very cool. I gave up at 50 cards, but the itch to start again is there every time I open ebay. I have to ask, does your set include the big 4 (and can we see some scans)? |

Robert: We had a bit of a collectors' kinship going last year when we were both trying to finish up D304, and I appreciated the relaxed and rational approach you brought to the process. I am sure you bagged the Everest of vintage cards, Mt. T206, with the same patience and sense. Your set ought well to be a source of great pride to you, and an inspiration to the rest of us. Congratulations, buddy! |

I haven't bought any in quite awhile, but one great investment you can make if you have card albums is a binder holder (I'm sure there's a better term--slipcover?). Dolton Hobby out of Illinois used to have them. You can store the 3" binders in them..and thus your card albums can be displayed upright as they should be on a bookcase shelf. The sagging is minimal, but it will happen a bit with larger sets. |

Why your interest in Plank, but not Magie, Demmitt and O'Hara? Is it based on the "variation" difference? |

Plank obviously is a true rarity of a wonderful player and is in my opinion the best looking card in the set! |
