The Other One (Julie)card you have is a Kimballs, and it has back damage. Is there some reason why the cards begin in 1886? No Peck and Snyders? (after all that address controversy, too!)Does a type collection contain exclusively rare cards--are we never to see a Spotted Tie, Brown's Champ, Player's League, or a just plain action or portrait card from the Old Judge set? I've heard many people say that the N162 set (the WHOLE set) is one of the most beautiful ever made--but we don't have any of those. Some of us are very partial to Mayos, even if they are only lowly halftones. Scrapps are certainly the Weirdest 19th century cards, but they don't appear. For ten years, the only Anson and Ewing I had was an E.R. Williams game card...
But maybe I mistake the purpose of this list--you want only the rarest cards--minus the Peck and Snyder...
Again, I can't picture the 20th century without a T206 or T205, a T3 (often called the only cabinet set the average collector has any HOPE of completing)...a Cracker Jack. The only Diamond Gum Pin I own is THE ONLY ONE I'VE EVER SEEN...
OUT OF THE 12 CARDS IN OUR CARD HOF, ONLY 4 SETS ARE REPRESENTED IN THIS LIST.
