Introduction to T-206 Cards

T206 cards were produced from 1901-1911 by a handful of tobacco companies.

I bought a couple of these cards years ago and later sold them to get some cash. Although I no longer have the cards, they intrigue me.

There is something cool about these cards, I don't know what resonates with me about them, other than, they're cool!

I enjoy history and baseball has always been a favorite pastime. These cards capture both. They not only have history on them, but the story of each card, how they survived all those years, is fun to think about.

The number of people produced when these cards were is declining. How could a piece of cardboard survive better than some people?!

My first goal is to educate myself on these cards. Then move on to the players and the stories about the game from 1909-1911.

I am a novice to this niche hobby, but find myself drawn in. I look forward to what I will learn.
