I am currently at 0, but according to your point system I was at 600 when I sold my set 30 years ago. I was missing Wagner, Plank, and Magee.

You had the Doyle error card? Which one of the 9 did you own?

rootsearcher60 11-29-2020 02:14 PM

Today is exactly one year since I started collecting T206 cards. I'm now at 432. Wish I started a year earlier.

Still at 520 but upgrading like crazy. Shooting for an overall 5.0 rating (full psa set) and nearly 4.82 now. A full .5 upgrade since completing the 520 on 12/15/19. Current Cobbs pictured.

Kevin 12-31-2020 03:38 PM

168 + 3 doubles
 
Dubuc
Shipke
Weimer

Wife dipped her toe in the game for Christmas and got Weimer. A beautiful example of a card. Don't have the heart to tell her he's already checked off the list.

sandmountainslim 01-05-2021 06:34 PM

trambo 01-19-2021 09:01 PM

Still upgrading my 520. Several upgrades over the weekend and the set sits at a 4.86 overall weighted rating. Getting closer to the 5.0 goal!!

baseballfan 01-20-2021 09:31 AM

Please add Up 2 more

Up to 98 I believe

hopefully 100 soon!!

trambo 02-10-2021 03:48 PM

More upgrades as well as an addition. Card 521 to the set! I guess that puts me at 600!

Kevin 02-10-2021 04:01 PM

175
 
After recent additions from the TonyO collection, we are now curating a collection of 175 cards. Also entertaining a John Frill “back run”, so to speak.

I have to go through me cards again. I remember I found Neal Ball in my box after not having included him on my check list. Now I’m having some serious Joe Kelley flashbacks and he is not noted on my list either.

Talk soon, friends. Looking forward to adding to my monster number after some mail days coming up this week.

I currently own 9 with more coming in the mail.
Hope to be a regular updater.

Tony - I’ve been meaning to ask: the cool cards with the hole punches. How did you come to acquire them ? How many did you possess at one time ? I feel like the two or three I have received from your collection are very special cards as I might be the 3rd or 4th curator of these cards...

danmckee 04-03-2021 11:20 AM

All folks want to get on the list.:)

Most folks seem to keep viewing.:confused:

Many folks upgrade their number periodically.:cool:

A few folks report every card they buy or sell.:(

Rarely does anyone request being canceled completely.:rolleyes:

This thread is nearly 10 years old and I am the only captain it has ever had. Complaints about the update frequency have been few and far between. A gentle reminder via PM would work better than a post such as this.

I will update the thread shortly, but remove you, Wid, from the list. With the current amount of activity, quarterly updates seem to work fine for the overwhelming majority.

My current # is 34.

Since I am only collecting portraits, I will (likely) never assemble the 520. Also, I have subtracted Wagner and Plank from my "100% target" because it is unlikely I will ever pick up those portraits. The Magee error is more realistic, but I am not including it in my spreadsheet for now.

My actual target is 1,650 unique front/back combos, which is all the portraits minus the 3 noted above, with all known backs. If more backs are found, then my number will change slightly. I have 34 unique fronts, and 39 front/back combos so far, though I've only really started this phase of my collection in the last 6 weeks or so, as I've been spending time clearing out non-portraits and moving through other parts of my collection accordingly.

Very cool thread

Hi, Frank. No disrespect meant. it was not a complaint - I had no idea about the schedule of frequency updates when I made the post. I think the community appreciates that you keep this up to date.
I'd appreciate being included on he next run, my number is now 81.

Have you tried emailing the picture to yourself and then posting the pic from your computer?

While it may not work for every phone/computer, I found it to be a helpful workaround.
