How many HOFers do you have
 
I know this was done a few years back but can't find it. I just reorganized my collection today so did a count. Not to brag at all.
Have 286 HOFers. I am mainly a card guy and have 246 signed directly on a gum card. How is everyone else doing? I know there are a dozen or so HOF I need that aren't too hard to do if I spend big $ and a hanful of cards. My number includes the 4 2024 inductees

179. 178 on gold HOF postcard and 1 on card (Buck O'Neil.)

I'm running a project where I collect a game used relic and autograph of every hall of famer, and I keep track of my progress here! https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AQV...usp=drive_link
As for the exact number, I have items from 60 different hall of famers, either relics, autos, or both.

My count may be slightly off as I had to go down a list and figure it out, so I may have missed a couple that I do have. From what I am gathering on the fly here, I can confirm for sure 153.

I am at 259 and I have either a certified on-card auto and/or a PSA/DNA certified auto for all. All but one of the PSA/DNA items are index cards or GPCs (one signed check).

For my on-card HOFers, I only need Campanella on a 3x5/GPC as well. I have his signed Front Row card.

Only achievable older inductees for me are all $1k+ or much more. I am resigned I might never add any more old-timers.

Currently at 226.

I am by no means the right person to ask this as I am not a completist, but I've got a good chunk of the "tough" ones and I really haven't tried to go after super cheap and common guys. I much prefer tough early and turn of the century autos than card show guys. I think my number sits at about 180, but I could easily add 60-70 HOFers for well under $100 each if I just wanted to knock it off the checklist.

Wow...been so long..I forgot my password. Sig is kinda old i guess too.

I am at 288 (missing leyland which is easy)

Above all, I prefer flats (no balls/bats/etc)
Then, if they have a certified on card auto (like topps/UD/Panini), I go there first.
Otherwise, I am open to most things, with Dates preferred (GPCs, Letters, Checks). Cuts are mostly avoided.

I know Frank has me beat who is on here. I think he's low to mid 290's.

Still here, sitting at 296 but haven't added anyone new (besides through election) since Ross Youngs over 2 years ago. Rare names just don't come up for sale anymore.

Sure, they do! You just have to overspend to get them (AHEM, REA Jimmy Collins, AHEM :) ).

Amazing, Michael.

Was following that at Gibson at auction. Congrats.

Thanks Frank. One of the most expensive purchases I've made but rare enough that if I ever change my mind (which I doubt), could probably make a profit
