Default Hey Derek....here's the American Beauty's you requested....plus stories

Back in 2005, I decided to break up my T206 set to work on an all - PIEDMONT set. I was fascinated by this Zach Wheat in this set.
So in parallel with my PIEDMONT set adventure, I started working toward completing an AMERICAN BEAUTY 460 (74-card) sub-set.

As a consequence of my AB 460 search, it was obvious that certain AB 460 cards (especially 12) were more available than others in
the 460-only Series. And, this observation resulted in my Exclusive 12 theory.
















At the Oaks (PA) show in 2011, I acquired this Gandil to complete my Exclusive 12 / AB 460 sub-set.

Todd Marcum and I were set up at adjacent booths; and, we worked out a great trade. I traded 44 cards [including a Dahlen (Brooklyn)]
to Todd, that got him to 500+ cards for his T206 set. Todd traded me this Gandil, and some miscellaneous goodies.
