up to 479. def getting harder as reaching the most expensive (eg Cobbs) and least common.

24, think I am resigned to boston and providence team sets, and horizontals. Maybe a few select others;)

That's a good plan Den. This set will take me years. I've thought about breaking it into smaller sets first, maybe the Pirates and build from there. Breaking off small chunks here and there over time makes it more manageable.

I hear you Donnie. Btw I am an absolutely huge Cobra fan. I talk about the Pittsburgh drug trials in my us history course. When Jim rice got into the hall I was hoping there would be a reappraisal of Parker's career. Guy belongs in. Al Oliver too for that matter. Not rod scurry tho.

Matt - Congrats. You may want to research Owen Wilson...he still holds a single season MLB record if I am not mistaken. Great T206 card...one of the first ones I picked up. :)

Frank - please bump my MN up to 51 when you get a chance. I picked up these five over the past week.

jimtigers65 07-31-2014 09:51 PM

Monster number is Seven! I joined this site a month or so ago and purchased 7 Detroit Tigers T206s from fellow collectors!

t206hound 08-01-2014 08:13 PM

Hi Frank,

After a few new acquisitions and a couple of upgrades (shown below) my Monster Number has increased by four to 58. If you could please update my MN, I would appreciate it.

Best regards,

Eric

jimtigers65 08-13-2014 09:00 PM

Joining this site a couple months ago I started enjoying looking at the T206s that other collectors post. So I jumped in and started collecting Detroit Tiger T206s. I purchased a few on this site and made it up to 8 T206s. I mentioned to my brother (who lives out of state) that I started collecting Tigers. He says "Oh, I saw a Boss Schmidt at a local antique store." He picked it up for $15. So, I'm up to 9!

Mountaineer1999 08-14-2014 06:40 PM

Hi Frank... Up to 52! Thanks

arott23 08-14-2014 07:46 PM

Not a very exciting number but I just picked up my first one with hopefully more coming soon!

clydepepper 08-14-2014 07:51 PM

I just broke my promise not to make any large purchases this Month.

mansco 08-19-2014 08:09 PM

I'm up to 433

the 'stache 08-20-2014 01:46 AM

Frank, if you would please update my number.

I sold Fred Clarke portrait (#92) and Clark Griffith portrait (#195) as I will be upgrading them. That dropped me to 21.

I've added ten new cards:

424. Admiral Schlei, catching
407. Dutch Revelle
379. Jim Pastorius
508. Kaiser Wilhelm, with bat
229. Fred Jacklitsch
257. Johnny Kling
524. Heinie Zimmerman
242. Tim Jordan, portrait
332. Chief Meyers
110. Sam Crawford, throwing

Best of all, only the Revelle and Schlei are graded. The Revelle a PSA 4 with an Old Mill back, and the Schlei a PSA 5 with a Sweet Cap factory 649 overprint. The rest will be arriving in a glorious, unslabbed state. :D

Please update my Monster number to 31.

Thank you!
