Added some more t206s Hall of Famers recently! Mixed in a few rarer backs with some of these!

Nice cards. Question on the Sovereign card. I recently bought a couple of T206 Sov Red Sox cards with that same discoloration that looks like it was on a grill or something. Anyone know what causes this or maybe they just came from the same batch?

To be completely honest with you I thought it was just the scan showing those markings when I bid on the card, but then when I got it realized it was on the card. I have no idea what it would be.

It seems like he does not have a lot of playing day cards so I was happy to add this E220 Grover Alexander Cleveland card to add to the HOF collection

Here are my pair, one already in my PC and the other on the way. Kind of wild that they have similar markings as your card.

This is my newest pickup right here. Had my eye on one for awhile and the price was finally right for one that I liked.

Very nice! I'm looking to get a Goudey Ruth at some point in the future.

Got a COMC order back. It is amazing how there are still so many raw cards that are in amazing shape for vintage. I saw the Trammell/Molitor sitting in the poor grade of COMC for $6. Anyone think that is a real auto? The Millner card has a little stain on the back that isn't that obvious. It is a beautiful card.

Yea, that's real - good grab for $6!

Its a tobacco stain - must have gotten wet / humid for the transfer. IIRC, you can get these off with soaking if you care that much

Not a great auto, but will be a great filler until I get a cheap Trammell on card auto for my PC.

Don't just get Trammell's on-card auto, since his rookie card also has Paul Molitor, you should get both together. Both are HOF players, and having both autos together for your PC will be much more valuable in the future than just one of them separately. See, like this one:

I actually hate rookie cards for signatures. Would much rather get an ultra modern card with a nice on card auto. I personally think that a vintage rookie card shouldn't be signed. I would like a reprint of that rookie card with both signatures on it. Already have a Molitor Fleer Greats of the Game on card auto. Just my personal preference and that won't change.

Cool, I'm not much of a fan of reprint cards, but if they have on-card autos on them, then yeah, I would collect those as well. This is especially the case where the rookie card is extremely expensive, but the player is still alive, and he's available to sign reprints by TTM.

Added another off back HOFer recently

I'm right here with you - its kind of crazy how the market used to agree with us and has moved onto the opposite! I remember in the past sometimes unsigned versions would sell for more than signed versions!
