It is a landmark set in the history of baseball card collecting, due to its size and rarity, and the quality of its color lithographs.

The set featured Honus Wagner, Eddie Plank and the error cards of Larry Doyle and Sherry Magee.

The set paid tribute to the original T206 design and artwork, leaning heavily on nostalgic elements.

Each pack is filled with star athletes, retired legends, and talented rookies including rare parallels, image variations and limited-edition autographs.

There are also multiple cards for the same player in different poses, different uniforms, or even with different teams after being traded (since the set was issued over a period of three years).

The historical significance of the set as well as the large number of variations give it enormous appeal to collectors.

In addition, the set features many Baseball Hall of Fame members including Ty Cobb (who is pictured on four different cards), Walter Johnson, Cy Young, and Christy Mathewson.

On August 1, 2008, noted memorabilia dealer John Rogers of North Little Rock, Arkansas paid US$1.6 million for a Professional Sports Authenticator 5MC (miscut) Wagner.

[10] In April 2013, a T206 "jumbo" Wagner, so-called because it measured slightly larger than most other known examples, sold at auction for $2.1 million, reported to be a record price for the card.
