Brandon--I think it would be an interesting set to work on. On one hand you have the perennial power of the American Association, the St Louis Browns. Their cards are not difficult and you have the fun of collecting the great Browns Champs subset, representing the 1886 Champions and including HOFer Charles Comiskey. On the other hand you get to collect the short lived 1888 St Louis Whites of the Western Association. These cards are a little scarcer, but certainly not rarities. If you embark on this task be sure to pick up a copy of the Old Judge book that Joe Gonsowski, Richard Masson and myself wrote. This is not meant to be a shameless plug; I think it will make the task easier and more enjoyable.
Good Luck!
