Default Poor Man’s E103 Journey

There have been several journey’s documented in regards to set building, so I thought I would begin to set mine down. I started the E103 Williams set without realizing I was doing so when I bought my first one (Davy Jones, before he was in the Monkees) several years ago from another board member. I picked another common up later and then one of the big three for the set (Christy Mathewson, cause I named my second born after him). After that, I guess I got hooked and have been picking them up here and there from auctions, eBay, and board members. I appreciate those who have contributed and look forward to keeping this string going til I hit number 30.

Feel free to post any insights or thoughts about the set.

Without further ado, here are my first 8, and when my next two arrive I shall post them as well!

Nice start to the set, David. Those look like nice, fairly consistent cards for the set you are building. What could be fun is to upgrade when you can but only on looks, not on grade . As I always say, the hunt is a lot of the fun. Good luck with the rest of the set.

And thanks for having my back, some time ago, when Roger N got all huffy and said I was stealing you as a customer at a show. He acted like a maroon that day.

Great looking set! Thanks for sharing. But don't you think that they would look so much better in a binder?

Default E103 glut on ebay

I was thinking about this set just the other night - I always assumed they are rare but look at all the ones on ebay right now - two separate lots each containing more than half the set, plus a bunch of singles (all at v. high prices, of course). Last I checked there were 5 copies of the elusive Bob Wood card for sale!

Is this just a fluke or has some kind of sell-off taken place?

Wonderful cards, David. Owning the Bender (in any condition) is one of my elusive hobby goals.

Never really been a binder guy, though that thread is fun!

There’s a lot on eBay at prices I don’t want to pay!

Thanks all for the comments! It’s a fun set.

Love this set, and also named my second born after Christy Mathewson! I thought I was unique in the respect!

I appreciate the comments!

I’ve been keeping an eye out for those two in a range I’m comfortable paying. I’m not concerned with grade on them, wrinkling is fine but no missing paper or major tears.

My other two kiddos are named after HOF ballplayers too!

You are upping your game on the last few, David. Nice cards. And you know how tough these are in any decent, visually appealing grade. (that doesn't cost 2 arms and a leg)

Caramel might as well be gold. I'm itching for an E102 Cobb. Not happening yet.

Default Poor Man’s E103 Journey

Thanks Leon!

I did some number crunching too on graded populations. I know that this also would have resubmissions that were never removed and the like, but I think it’s a good overall picture. Some notes to make are:

Hall of Famers average 35.18 in population.

Commons average 24.21 in population.

I think the questions that comes to mind would be are the higher numbers for HOF because of resubmission, the higher profile of the player, the fact that HOF would be more likely to have been saved over commons, or a combination?

Look at Ira Thomas. Was he the inspiration for the Count on Sesame Street??

I think if “The Count” and Scott Bakula had a kiddo, that would be old Ira...

It’s been a few weeks but I hit the halfway point today with the assistance of Scott Brockleman. Thanks for meeting me to handoff the card!

I appreciate that! I hope to move over the halfway mark Monday!

The auctions seem to be drying up as of late on these.

Thanks for the updates, David. Not a bad Bender. I agree with whomever said, It's been fun to watch. The E103s aren't in almost every auction as many other Ts and Es are, so it's not a walk in the park. As long as they meet your specs, that is all that matters (of course). We all have our own perspective of what we will, and won't, accept. It helps keep it fun. Good luck with the rest!!

Appreciate it! It’s starting to become a little more difficult to hit the sweet spot of:

1. One’s I still need
2. Low grade
3. Price point

But that’s the game!

Thanks all for the encouragement!

Nice job! Fantastic set in its simplicity. Can never go wrong with a classic portrait. Had not paid much attention to the issue until this thread. Seems like a set that can be completed without too many road blocks too. Thanks for sharing.

Keep up the journey. Frank only has a few scrapes and looks good for being over 109 yrs old. Just the right ones, considering price, condition and otherwise, are often difficult to find.

That is very true. I’ve had some good luck with auctions - especially when there are multiple desirable cards in the price range I’m looking at.

It’s been a long time to update this post. I got discouraged when several of my cards were stolen, including a Wood from this set. But...I am now posting some updates!

Card #20 - While not as nice as the one stolen, still a toughie!

Nice David, glad you're getting some back in your collection. Sorry to hear you had some cards stolen.

Nice thread. I especially love the look on Crawford & Gibson faces. It's like they're looking back at you thinking "Man, why you creasing by baseball card!?!"

This is such an awesome set. I always thought they'd look good in the 20 count sheets in a binder(a little fragile for me to comfortably insert and extract). Congratulations.
