Default Howe McCormick backstamps - 50 I'll never see

Posted By: CN

Ed, I think you are being selfish in trying to gain some sympathy for your collecting basically cards with this stamp on it. Why should somebody break up a set to help you when you admit you cannot afford the set. If it meant so much to you I would try to bid on the whole lot and sell the cards you don,t want. I belong to a small collecting club of vintage cards-12 members on Long Island which has been going strong for 17 years even though we have lost 10 members and I know of one member who does not post here but he has 8 Howe McCormick T206 cards and always hunts for more and is trying to get a group together to buy the Mastro lot with the Caveat that he only gets the cards with the stamp. He is willing to go beyond his means to acquire these cards. I am not involved in this endeavor but I admire him for his ingenuity. He wishes to remain anonymous but he used to post here when Bill and Elliot ran the forum but he got tired of the personal agendas. CN
