Thanks guys! I don't think any other issue has been more fun to collect for me personally.
I have a distinct story that goes along with each of those cards, which adds to the enjoyment for me -- the Jackie was my first ever purchase on Net54; the Ruth was gotten through another collector's extreme generosity; the DiMaggio through a Widow of a former collector who has now become a family friend; the Williams was a last-second kamikaze bid on eBay, etc etc. Good memories.
Still have the last 2 toughies to go, though -- the Feller and Paige... *gulp*
Also, just realized I forgot to add ol' Tobacco-Chewing Honus to the lineup...
