Wharton-Tigar should have at least one, perhaps both
BB HOF has one pose (94-1a)
Met has both poses (posted below)
Library of Congress has one (posted below)



All told, I would think you are at or near perhaps half the total population in your collection (amazing feat). Purely speculation, but I think there could easily be 70+ Corcoran cards out there. I don't believe the 100 card goal would be possible but suggest you go for it so you can join the rest of us in trying to achieve the impossible with OJs.

You need to find a way to get him elected into BB HOF!

If I can resurrect him and get him to pitch two more years so he reaches the 10 year minimum, then we just might have a chance!

I would agree with your guess for the most part. 100 is very doubtful, but 60-70 is more likely a good guess range. I bought two out of collections around Christmas in 2010. Since then there have been two for sale/auction. One on ebay in July of 2011 and the one last week, also on ebay. I bought both. Before that I found about 2-3 each year once I got online in 1998.
