He didn't donate a thing to museums. Everything was sold.

I thought he gave a Wagner to the HOF.

Does this have to be cards?
1. Heffners house of 'babes' (pun intended)
2. Sam Adams beer brewery
3. Attend a Jackson Barret car show
and #4 : Attend a National card show

Guess I wouldn't have thought of Hefner's House of Babes as a collection, but it is. He trades for what he sees as upgrades and when something isn't the shiny new thing everyone thought would be the hot new thing any more, he trades for something new.

Dan B we think alike. Your collection popped into my head before I seen you posted mine.

I'd like to see these:

Dan Bretta
Dave Eskenazi
Rob Dewolf

Love the focus and dedication of their collections.

I would liked to have seen Joe Pelaez's collection.

Collection
 
I have had the privilege of Seeing Marshall Fogel's collection and not only is it cover everything (cards, memorabilia, photo's etc...) it is quite literally the best of the best. Most everything's condition is near mint as well as being extremely rare. Books and books of photo, bats, gloves, pennants, ads etc... He also collects native American artifacts and that collection in it self is quite amazing as well. He was a great host and was very gracious to allow me to sit on his floor and go through his collection. A true gentleman

Only three... but
 
Mark Macrae
Frank Nagy
Edward Wharton Tigar ...

But there are lots of others' collections, too, that would be great to experience.

In alpha sequence:

Mark Macrae
Dan Mckee
John Rumierz

I would have included Leon's collection, but I have seen it online (Leon has made it available to us Net54ers for a long time) plus I now have the Heritage auction catalog (a keeper!).
