[Howe’s Hunter]

Got a message from Bob Rice last Friday, saying he saw a bunch of Howe-stamped cards were being listed on eBay if I needed any of them. 20 minutes later, I’d purchased eight that I didn’t have.

Takes the list down to 105 possible cards that I would need to have each of the cards Howe might have had in a complete set. Of those, 13 are ones I missed when Scott Gross auctioned off the huge Goldin lot, and I know the owners of five of those. There are another five I know exist, and know the owners of three of those, but they are Cobbs, which will never fit my budget.

When I rethought the collection to go to one of each, I really never thought I’d get close to 400. Thanks to everyone here for letting me know when they see one.
