Laughing. Nope Lance, it's the never ending quest.

I still need :
5 of the 1957 large sized posters (17.5 X 20)
13 of the player M113s
13 of the team M113s
44 of the player M114s with a non-DC address
10 of the player M114s with a DC address
14 of the team M114s

Those counts of course assume that everything in the catalog actually exists, and don't allow for unlisted ones (of which there are many).

I posted in the BST about my ongoing search, but have had minimal responses :

And, here's number 791...

This fits nowhere in my collection, but he was always my favorite wrestler. I may give it to a friend of mine who is a huge wrestling fan.

Love it Doug

Doug,
Just curious, how many supplements are in the m113 & m114 collection total?

Wow, what a project!

Good question Scott, I don't know. I think the catalog lists 695 of them. I'm at 791, but I still show myself needing 117.

I'm betting there are close to 1,000 of them.


On a separate subject, but still a June pickup, I received possibly my best ebay score ever in the mail a few minutes ago.

$13.49 for a (well) scored program from Koufax's first no-hitter.

It's great when sellers don't know what they have.

Woohoo!
Doug

Thanks Doug! Wow, what a project!
That Koufax 1st no-hitter program is a dandy for the price. Congrats!

Doug and Scott,
Both fantastic pick ups.

Nice pick up Paul. Beautiful shape too!

I picked up this ring at Steiner today. I was blown away by the tour and I was able to personally meet Brandon Steiner too! What a nice guy!

The whole staff was great! This World Series ring is in unusually good condition. It has a real diamond and the proper vintage markings and engravings inside the ring.

This is the last world series that Lou Gehrig played in. The following year he played in a handful of games before ending his career.

The ring belonged to an executive of the team, George Weiss, who is in the Baseball Hall of Fame.
