Nothin' much compared to the accomplishments of lots of you guys, but I picked up #200 on my T206 set today, a nice mid=grade George Davis.

Congrats on reaching the 200 milestone! I imagine the collection starts to round more and more into shape as you check off that many. I'm not a t206 guy, but can relate to the sense of accomplishment as you move further and further along the completion % ladder. Keep chuggin along, and good luck on those '41 Double Plays as well (always liked that Williams/Cronin card especially).

200 is a significant point along the way. Congratulations.

When I began to make a focused effort on the white border cards I no longer just marked the box beside the name on my photocopied list of cards; but I also would pencil in the date of acquisition and a number. So put down a "200" by Davis. For me it was neat to look back at the order of acquisition. Patience and persistence.

Congrats! Next milestone, the half-way mark. 518, 520, 524? Whatever you desire to get to, there are a few half way points to pick from. Best of luck on the rest of the quest!

Best,

Andy

the Monster wants you to quit. Don't listen to it.

all the best,

Climbing the mountain--
 
Congratulations.

I can relate; I just got to 200 a few months ago, right about when I tuned into Net54. My number has spurted since then to 249/250, and I've just re-organized from team pages to alphabetical order, putting them in 37 new pages. I've also finally printed out a list, crossing out those I have.

How do you organize/display your cards?
And what number are you aiming for?

I'll probably aim at 518, but even that may be unrealistic.
If/when I reach 500, I'll feel good.

Keep it up.

Doug

Congrats. I'm at 2 personally.:D I doubt I'll ever chase the whole set, I'd like to but it's unrealistic for me. Good luck with the rest of your set, that's quite an accomplishment to be nearly half way there.
