Default T206 Big 3

Posted By: Pennsylvania Ted

Well, my primary goal in this hobby has always been to complete sets....I guess it's an obsession
with me. And, this was the mindset with most collectors back in the 1970's thru the 1980's. But,
like you, I also go after "type" players. As a kid, reading books on the NY Highlanders, I was im-
pressed with Mr Chase. So, I had to have a type set of his cards.

In 1949 when Johnny Lindell hit the game, and Pennant winning HR (vs the Red Sox), I had to have
all his BB cards.

And, so on and so forth.....OK, why do you favor Mr Chase ?
