Ok... pretty obvious. Thanks for sharing.

Phew mine looks good. Yea. Most of the checks seem to pan out.

Here's a link about it (last paragraph)

Anyone else similar to my (erroneous) thinking that Ruppert was already in the Hall of Fame?

I never realized before that he wasn't.

I keep asking myself the same question about GIL HODGES

I thought the same thing. How could he not be in the HOF with all of those WS wins?

I had a colossal brain fart as well. At one point I honestly thought that Munson was in as well. Had him and Hodges in with my HOF RC collection. I didn't even look at my list in regards to post-war guys, I just put 'em there. I still haven't had the heart to take either of 'em out.

Couple questions on newest inductees
 
So from what I read, this would appear to be a Barrow proxy-signed Ruppert?

http://www.ebay.com/itm/JACOB-COLONE...item45e8ba7d5b

Also, I am interested to know where Deacon White would fall on the list of rarity. Would he crack the "top 10 toughies" list? He died in the 30s before sending TTM was fashionable, but he did live a pretty long life. I have to imagine he's pretty scarce but I don't know what he did after baseball so am unsure about the availability of documents, checks, etc. Anyone have any insight on Deacon?

I don't think Deacon White would fall into the 10 toughest list although Hank O'Day might. Mostly because White's family sold his estate several years ago and there were a number of signed items in the offering which ended up in private collections but likely some will now surface.
