Well Ted, there is one Indy card that will prove difficult. John (z28jd) hoards Larry Corcoran; his 1887 cards being with Indy. John needs professional help, it's an unhealthy obsession. I'm sure no one has ever approached ~40 cards of the same player, pure insanity. One work around would be to stick to just the 1889 team as you posted.
