For the most part that's true, and there aren't that many to get. There are, by my list, 34 HOFers that played for the Sox, 5 that managed the team and 3 that were in the front office. That's about as far as I've got on research so far.
Many of those 34 players only wore a Sox uniform for a year or two, so I don't know if there is anything out there for them at all, other than a Conlon tribute card. I don't expect there is a Johnny Evers or Chief Bender Sox card, and maybe not Red Ruffing or Edd Roush either. Hank Greenberg was a White Sox executive for a couple years, it would be cool if there was a Sox team set that included him, but I don't know of anything.
If you have any of this stuff catalogued already, send me a PM and I would love to discuss. Or we can just hijack this thread, if you'd rather.
