First T206’s- The Story of Doc Powers
I will always be grateful for meeting some great folks at Net54 who helped me with my first few T206 purchase. Up to 32 in the total count and slowly growing! The plan is to get raw cards for all the commons and low graded SGC’s for the Hall of Famers. Something about the black tuxedo really excites me and completes the vintage look I’m going after. Looking forward to slowly documenting this journey. I claim Doc Powers as my first card in the set- along with McGlynn, and Gabby Street portraits. The Doc is special because of how banged up it is and it is a great first card. His story is even more interesting- he was a doctor who chose to be a baseball player instead. The story goes that he went to catch a fly ball and ended up running into the foul pole… only to pass away a few days later in the hospital. Looks like Doc should have remained a physician, saving lives…including his own.
