I've since finished the basic set and am on my way to the master set. Also included are a few oddities that I've picked up along the way.

What a nice way to honor your Dad by finishing the set. I'm working on finishing the 1934 Gold Medal Flour set to honor my Uncle who died before I was born but left behind 4 cards, including both Deans.
