HOBBY MILESTONE!

Recently picked up my first #T206 Tobacco Card: this Rube Waddell Piedmont. 

After looking for the right combo of centering, focus & registration, bold text on the name & team, minimal staining and paper loss, and the right price, I found this one online. 

Rube Waddell is a Hall Of Famer, maybe the most dominant lefty pre-Koufax, and might have been even more interesting off the field than on it.  His Wikipedia page provides some entertainment.
