I'm at 138 including 67 hall of famers. All in the fair, good, vg range.

Started last summer. The monster tried to get me to quit this winter and I sold my poor condition commons. I only listened for a few weeks, and now have re-started with a little better focus to aid my budget. I suspect it will try to get me to quit again when I attain all of the hall of famers (-2). Still need 2 cobbs (green and bat-on) 2 Collins, Griffith port, Lajoie throwing and Young glove. We'll see.

In the meantime, I am enjoying the quest. A large part is the plethora of reading material and history on this board and it's links.

Ran across this 10-28-07 "quote" from the archives while reading the thread on number of t206 sets this morning:

It is an amazingly shrewd adversary,yet a most intriguing friend.
Forgive my anthropomorphism.

all the best,
barry


Made me smile. Things like that make this set more than just a stack of cards for me.
