Default Collectors of a certain card? How many?

I was looking through some old pictures and saw my Lumley run and this got me wondering if anyone collects/ hoards one player. At one time I had 30ish Lumleys which I'm sure is Little League level. Who amongst you has a big number of one player?

Not T206s or vintage but I have hoarded several different cards. I have owned over 1000 89 Fleer Bill Ripken error cards and just as many of the 89 Fleer Randy Johnson errors. I am also currently hoarding 2 different Wanderlei Silva MMA cards and own around half of the print run of each card. I have also hoarded a couple of the Wade Boggs errors.

I even have a really rough one in a thick screw-down so it stands on my desk at the office.

I'm waiting for JD and his plethora of Larry's. Only two poses but I bet he's got every variation which is quite impressive for OJs.

I know someone that has/had a load of a single T206 player. We discussed it and figured it'd be pretty difficult to buy enough of a single common player to influence the overall T206 market.

For myself, I don't have a large quantity of any single player unless you count 80s and 90s crap.

I have a few more Dots Millers (maybe 35ish), but it would take a bunch of scans to show them, and I don't have scans of some just because they are T206s with different backs. Here's a display with some of them. I thought I took an updated photo of the display with four more cards, but I can't find it

Well, I don't want to brag too much, but I happen to own the entire run of PSA graded 1997 Finest Brian McRae base + refractor...including all off of the PSA 10s.

There's 1 graded, it's a 10. I own it.

For my post-war brethren, I have a quintet of these wickedly tough to find career contemporary cards, 1967 Laughlin World Series - With Address - #61 Mickey Mantle...

There are a few cards that I have multiple copies of, but not many. I have a few Jackie Robinson 1948 Leafs, a handful of 53 Topps Jackie Robinsons, 56 Clementes, and Koufax RCs. I have two copies of a lot of cards, but that's usually because I found an upgrade and intend to resell the other. But hoarding dozens or hundreds of the same card isn't something that appeals to me.

I am trying for a mid size back run with the Jennings One Hand - currently 6 different so far.

But I also like building modern rainbows, and have likely the best 2021 Topps José Ramirez of anyone. Currently at 80 different of the Topps Flagship and other Topps sets using the same photo/design. Just picked up my 3rd 1/1, and have all but 1 of the /5.

1954 NY Journal-American Johnny Antonelli.



Not a particularly desirable set and I am not a collector of this card specifically, but have an Antonelli collection and this card isn't particularly abundant, so I usually bid if it is affordable.

I also have 3 copies of the regionally issued 1994 Nabisco All-Star Legends Paul Blair. I had a fourth but traded it to a board member for a 1976 English Chicken bucket lid of Blair. Single copies of this card only become available every 3 to 5 years. So, when they do, they usually go for over $100.

3 and 6 aren't exactly large numbers, but given the rarity of the cards appearances on the open market, I consider myself lucky to have as many copies as I do.

Here’s my Klein rookie run…these are different tints so not really hoarding like some others we’ve seen here…but others may disagree.

It's only hoarding when Jolly Elm does it.

I have 6 or 7 T204 Harry Lord cards, including his own personal card from an auction in Maine. At some point I thought it would be funny to have "12 Lords a Leaping".
