The American Tobacco Company's T206 set has always been the Everest of baseball card collecting. With 524 total cards it ranges from obscure players to the most coveted card in existence, The Honus Wagner. Its size allows for a variety ways to collect it, whether you like Portraits, HOFers, sets by back, Minor Leaguers, Southern Leaguers and all four Cobbs; there is something for everyone. Its versatility and availability make it by far the most collected tobacco set. This particular set, put together over decades, truly exemplifies the painstaking process it takes to complete this set. Evenly matched throughout this set is in very good to excellent with only a couple of creased cards. There are three graded cards. The Ty Cobb Green Background Portrait and the Ty Cobb Bat Off Shoulder are both graded SGC VG-EX 4. The other is the Bill O'Hara St Louis Variation has been graded PSA 1 PR. Everything has been left just the way the previous owner/caretaker collected it. Please view the website for a complete breakdown of this offering. The set will also be available to view at our gallery in Denver PA. I urge serious bidders to see the set in person. We all see T206 groups and singles available for sale but opportunities to purchase nice complete sets are rare indeed!
Condition: (Very Good - Excellent).
