Wow, they look nice in a group. While I would never turn down an N172, I have also never pursued them. But seeing those grouped together in the SGC frames... it is a fine sight. Well done.

+1 on what he said. I have a small lot of n172s and feel lucky and happy to have them. But, wow! That is the coolest collection of them I have ever seen.

Of course you are correct. Dang, he didn’t make the pic. I’ll redo it… it’s sort of a lengthy process to scan and photoshop them together. Thanks for picking that up.

Great run, Keith! As Joe implied, Deacon White is the key to the run and your copy is beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful. I'm curious how long it took you to find a Harry Wright with a nice image.

Congrats. Nicely done. I am doing this subset also, but only 75 percent complete. What a fun project.

Congratulations! A truly beautiful sight. Agreed that it looks fit for a museum. I could volunteer my living room...

To the OP - A few questions about the quest -

Which HOF was your first?
Which HOF was your last?
During the search, which were the five toughest players to locate?

That's a nice run of HOF N172s!

Mickey Welch was my first. Harry Wright was the last.

Top 5 difficult:

Deacon White
Harry Wright
Bid McPhee
Amos Rusie
Kid Nichols

Interesting - I would've thought Delahanty was harder than Nichols

What surprises me is that the McPhee is listed as one of the toughest HOFers to obtain yet I've seen many for auction in the past few years. Perhaps people were cashing in on the perceived "rarity" of the card. I've seen far fewer White, Rusie's, Hamilton's or even Hanlon's in the past few years than McPhee cards.

Perhaps all the McPhee's are now in permanent collections and they'll be more difficult to come by as I've seen less and less HOF OJs being put up for auction.

That is one heck of an accomplishment - congratulations!

I've noticed those McPhees as well. Deacon White seems like a true "white whale".
