Default My story is sadly one of near completion

I have never been super fanatical in completing sets. In my collecting from pack years 1975-81, I never did finish a set, but came relatively close.

After switching to PreWW2 collecting, the first set I finished (Frank can not disqualify me as he only mentioned T206 sets needing to be 524 and did not mention any other sets) was the numbers 1 through 96 'short set' of Diamond Stars cards, which I accomplished sometime in the early 1990's and still have. We all know that the repeated Diamond Stars cards #97-108 are just pointless, and you shall all rally to my defense if Frank decides to place the DQ/banned banner across my sorry chest.

25 years later and I am still half a dozen cards shy of a complete 108 card set, and not sure if I will ever get them all.
