What sets are people close to finishing?
 
Posted By: <b>Josh Adams</b><p>I am 10 cards away from the 1933 Goudey set. Need 2 Ruths and some commons. <br /><br />Of those of us here, what sets are you all close to completing? What cards did you find difficult to acquire (if you are doing a 206 set, well, that is sort of obvious!), and do you have any good stories about any pickups to help complete your respective sets? <br /><br />Josh

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>Somehow I got further away from the Monster, while keeping the same total number of cards. I recently acquired a Magie error card from a Net54 member (thanks again!), but had to sell and downgrade some other cards in order to make the purchase without affecting my bank statement. As a result, I sold my Johnson portrait card and will eventually be in the market for another. <br /><br />Since many people few the T206 as essentially complete without the Magie (and the Wagner, Doyle and Plank), I am now technically without a complete set -- even though I still have the same number of T206 cards this week as I did last week, when I had a complete set (minus the big four). I suppose now I have the complete set (minus the big three and the big train).

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>I am six away from my backs set of T206s (beaters).<br />This set will take me a while --- mainly because I am not really actively pursuing the cards needed.<br /><br /><br />I use one of Trae's framing examples as my checklist (my cards are not the ones shown... its just a checklist).<br /><br /><img src="http://www.internetville.com/images/albums/userpics/10001/backsSet2.jpg">

Posted By: <b>warshawlaw</b><p>Since I collect a lot of offbeat stuff, there often isn't a way to say for certain that the set is complete. <br /><br />I know I am very close to T219, T219, T220, T225 and some exhibit sets (at least front poses; master sets, fugetaboutit). <br /><br />
