Posted By: <b>Shanon</b><p>I am looking to add a Cy Young to my collection. Probably a T-206 but I will keep an eye out for a Caramel issue also. I wonder why Cy was not included in the Cracker Jack sets?

Posted By: <b>cn</b><p> I am almost finished collecting the monster but I unfortunately need the Demmit and Magie. I am not counting the Wagner even though about 20 years ago I could have purchased one at a price which I regret and will regret not accepting. It sucks being in your 20's and not having the money to buy a Baseball Card treasure. CN

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>My priority is always on a bunch of items that surface only rarely, so I wouldn't even bother calling them priority purchases for the year. If I get one at the National I am a happy camper. <br /><br />I'd like to finish my 1948 Exhibit HOF set, though.

Posted By: <b>Hal Lewis</b><p>It's my destiny, I guess.<br /><br />It was about 5 years ago that the frikkin computer in my hotel room in Manhattan froze up at the end of a Mastro (or REA) auction and someone else won this card.<br /><br />I know that someday the buyer will want to give the card a good home.<br /><br />I just keep trying.
