Glad this thread came around again. I started collecting vintage cards a few years ago and have completed a 1951 Bowman set, 1948 Bowman set, and most recently, a 1933 Goudey set (sans Ruth/Gehrig cards).

I am constantly upgrading my Goudey set as it is mostly F-G condition, but also decided to start a T-206 collection. Currently up to 56 cards (all commons with no HOFers and all common backs) and wish I had started earlier. I love the artistry of these cards as well as the back variations.

Hi Frank,

Update me to 425 when you can. Thanks.

Under 100 to go!!!

Hi Frank,

Please update my Monster Number to 73 when you get a chance. I picked this up from a board member a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately, I have been so busy, I just got around to scanning it today.

My new number is 162 with the addition of a few winnings over the last week. Thanks for updating.

I have 4

Put me down for a whopping 7

Thanks, Scott

Nice work Scott!

Way to go Scott. Congrats on getting to 520!!! Awesome accomplishment

Nice job Scott.

Thanks,

Mark

I just hit 100. Not bad for 3 months collecting.

What is up Frank.
 

Two things.

Set 1 is consigned to Love of the Game for Summer auction. Guess another set bites the Monster list dust.

Set 2 consists of primarily raw cards, now at 121. So set 2 is just the bueno set...makes me want to eat a burrito........

I have seen a few monster's in my day...so I guess my new monster number is...a few?!

18 now Frank, thanks to you and Mr. Bresnahan.

22 now Frank!

Consecutive posts Greg? Really, you don't own this thread, I do.:p:p:p

LOL, my bad Frank! I'll keep that in mind in the future!

OK. I'm in at 15..One page full. On to two.
I have two graded I plan to flip.

EDIT: After reading the entire thread, inclding the rules, my current number is 11.

Thanks for breaking this up Jimmy, wouldn't want to post 3 in a row. Frank might lose it. :-)

I saw the "spat". That should ease Frank's worries.
YOU THE MAN FRANK!:D

Shouldn't the answer be not enough ?
 

77 :(

Remember that the journey is most of the fun! You'll be at 200 before you know it!

Up to 74 - thanks!

Hi Frank - 23 now!

Frank,

I am up to 125 now.

Up to 495 now.

All SGC50 or better. Really getting slow now.

Just added 7 more, pics to follow

24 now Frank.

So I thought I was at 500 but miscalculated. Just picked up a Tinker portrait and Keeler batting so I have finally cracked the 500 mark at 501. End in sight but all Hall of Famers left. Slow going from here.

This is very true !
 

88 now. I just ordered another display case and will still have 8 cards that won't be being displayed. I feel like that will be half the issue as much as finding and buying the cards haha. Displaying them. 2 cases holding 80 cards between the two now.

Frank,

379.

Thanks

78 here so far

Frank - It has been almost a whole month since I added #94 - now I'm ready to have #95, Bill Dinneen, & #96, Ed Abbaticchio, added.


Thanks,
Raymond

120 now

Hi Frank,

After picking up this Dummy Taylor, I am up to 74. If you could please update my Monster Number, I would appreciate it.

Best regards,

Eric

125 Please :) Five away from the 1/4 mark! A few of the new additions

Picked up a few dozen cards
 

Monster number up to 120 - Thanks!

Frank - Harry Coveleski is #97 for me.

Thanks for your great work!

Mark me down for 102 when you get a chance Frank. Just won a Frank Smith Chicago & Boston off another board member here. And my highest graded card a Pat Moran PSA 5.

It was fun!
 

Down to 3 from 512 six months ago. I'm thinking of maybe starting a CUB sub-set in the future.

Jack Bliss is #98 for me.

Thanks Frank!

Hi Frank,

Just hit 30.

210 for me please.

thanks

Speaker and Lajoie with bat are on the way
to me. That will make 503.

106 Frank, sorry that I keep posting updates I'll try to take a break from buying. "TRY"

Please update me to 152, with a beautiful PSA 3 Shag among them!

Hey Frank,

When you get a chance, I'm now up to 144.

Thanks

I am now up to 254 - please update whenever you do the next one...thanks!

I haven't posted any photos to date, yet, but just added about 135 non-duplicate cards to my collection, acquiring a large lot. Purchased these as a lot advertised as being in mostly Poor-Fair condition. The cool thing was that about a 20 or so were in very nice shape (several even crease-free) minus having some glued paper stuck to the back.

Did a soaking and was extremely pleased with the results, so I wanted to show a few here. I have about 8-10 that came out this clean. From P-F to VG IMO. Several others moved up a grade or are, at the very least, much more desirable.

Haven't posted in about a year. My updated number is 164.

Hi Frank It's been three months since I've sent an update, and have added thirty-seven more T206 cards. With the addition of these awaiting their "crack-out" procedure, Wild Bill Donovan portrait, Addie Joss portrait, and John McGraw (glove at hip), my number is now 407.

Larry, you're crazy man. Those are 10s. Just cross out SGC and add PSA.;)

I am now up to 320, or over 62% complete. Less than 200 to go...

:eek:

With Joe Kelley coming aboard, please bump me to 279 - thanks!

500
 

So I purchased Chris' Cobb, Red Portrait, Sovereign back in SGC50 and that brings my monster number to:

500

What an appropriate card to reach 500 with. So now my collection is at 500 and they are all SGC50 or better.

Only 20 more to go.......getting fun......and expensive:eek:

Thanks Chris for the Cobb!

Nice work Phil! And beautiful card!

I haven't updated for a while, so...now at 114. Been slow this year.

....
 

You bloody b@st@rd !!!!! Soooooooooooooo Jealous such a beautiful Cobb !

Great job Phil. Couldn't have asked for a better # 500 card. My # 100 was Buck Weaver.

Mark

Pull over Buddy. There is no T206 Weaver. Get out of the car, drop your weapon and put your hands up. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used as evidence against you. A lawyer won't do you any good, but we'll find one if you insist. There will be no change of venue and you are guilty as charged regardless of the findings of the Net54 kangaroo court.:eek:

...
 

Bhahahahahahahhahaha Good call Frank :rolleyes:


I'm at 126 now and counting. Let's say slowing down hasn't been so easy. Picked up a Dummy !!! A couple Meyers and another SL'er.

Yes officer, I am guilty as charged............HOLY MOLY.....I meant Buck Herzog. LMFAO.
