My First T206 's

Bought my first few T206's this week, and after they arrived I can definately see why collectors like them so much. The cards are very detailed for a small card and I personally like to buy the cards which have amazing looking backgrounds, The bright colored sunsets really are awesome.
Well, Here are the three I purchased, probably the first three in a long line of T206 cards to come.

    Very nice pickups image

    Take it from me, you are now hooked !

    I picked up my first T206 a few months back and not a week has gone by where I didnt add at least one since then.

    It's a common but still something I appreciate just because image
    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    What's so wrong with the Owen Wilson that it only gets an SGC 30?? Looks like the blazing colors should make it better than that! I imagine I'm missing a crease?

    Nice cards! I would crack them and put them in PSA slabs though... image

    Looks like some paper loss on the lower right.

    Congratulations tb!

    It's how I feel about T3s - they were printed the same using chromolithography of the time - tho not the same as modern cards - the "pastel" appearance is what I like.

    Good luck if you decide to make this a project.
