Default Card Collecting Grand Slam

Posted By: Joe_G.

To follow up on Jim's comment, even if you simplify a complete OJ set from it's ~2,427 unique N172 poses to just the 520 different baseball players represented, no one person has completed it (to my knowledge). And as Jim stated, it comes down to the 19 California League cards (18 of which can only be found as such, all single pose examples) and a handful of other key players that are also exceedingly difficult. Despite this, there are a couple amazingly complete collections out there.

If one can convince themselves that the California League cards are not required to complete the set (similar to the big 3 or 4 in T206), the task becomes easier but still very difficult.

Best Regards,
Joe Gonsowski
