It has been a couple months since I started my quest to acquire each T206 Tolstoi back example. With a limited budget, so far I have 39 graded + 4 on the way. That culminates to approximately 17% of Ted's confirmed Tolstoi list.

I wanted to thank the board for plenty of help along the way up to this point.

The Tolstoi collection can be viewed on my website:

It has been a fun journey, and I hope to keep acquiring many more Tolstois to try and complete this set down the road.

Thanks again to all who have helped,

Rob

and remember the adaptation of the famous dictum:
The Tolstoi Monster wants you to quit.
Don't listen to it!

Thanks guys, it has been a ton of fun. The key has been patience, which I guess can be said for many of our collecting goals. I will keep you updated as I make more significant progress.

Thanks again!! Rob

Nice work Rob, and happy to see one or two of my old ones in there!
I just got a beater Maddox in a lot I could part with, and you know where the Young Glove and Kleinow BOS are when you get around to them.
Carry on,
Bob
