[1880nonsports]

Suppose I'm skirting a posting rule as only a few of these are base ball but they're part of the "lot" so here I go

I have been on the fence for more than 10 years about continuing to chase a complete album run. I've made it to 54 albums of which 50 are tobacco albums; 44 attributed, 5 related and cataloged as tobacco albums but without imprint, and 4 non-tobacco albums. I have framed 9 of the albums so they are not included and will retain the Goodwin round album no matter what I do - leaving the 44 listed below. I also have a duplicate of the Goodwin champions album in addition to the listed one (about ex/mt) and a FRAMED duplicate of that same fantastic album - either of which I would trade or sell independent of the albums listed below. Most are in excellent or better condition - some near mint. I can provide album by album descriptions to a truly interested party.
I'm not giving them away so would prefer a reasonable offer if you chose to make one. You can post it or email me - contact in links section. I would sell/trade them all as a lot - or exclude the Ginter albums as they directly relate to a core part of my accumulation. I will NOT sell/trade any individual album unless you can fill in my missing N162 and/or N184 cards. In the absence of a sale I will continue the chase to add albums when I can = around 26/27 to go - a few have never been seen - a solid offer the only thing that could stand in my way.
Hell of a way for the sophisticated collector or archivist to get a huge start on a run. Not sure what was going on when I added the "x" after some (think at some point I was contemplating keeping just the x ones) - just ignore it.........
