IggyCongratulations Jamie! A great accomplishment that hopefully your grand kids will talk about one day. Although, I think you are "1/2" a card short; until you find the rest of that T206 Red Cobb. By the way, was that an upside down Cy Young I saw??? I'll give you $1000 for it (just kidding.....).
The value of the entire set(?), I would agree with the $18,000 figure. As an FYI, in the latest REA auction a complete set went for $35,250 plus the juice. I actually thought it was going to go for a little more (and if I would have won the lottery that night, the high bidder was going to get some competition). The set was missing the big Four and was a mixed of Poor thru Vg/Ex cards with the stars averaging VG (sixteen of the $$$ cards were graded). Of course, it didn't have an upside down Cy Young.

Now, to complete your set. You have to create a subset with all the backs represented... Just throwing a subliminal message out there...
Lovely Day...
