Sometimes people don't set out to collect a certain player or pose but a number of tough cards seem to follow you and wind up in your collection. Before you know it you are keeping an eye open for more even though you never felt any special attraction to the player or pose before. I call this having a cardboard stalker. I am not a guy to start a back run, though I think they are awesome to see, but I have a few stalkers that are definitely trying to push me to do it.
Let's hear about (and see) your cardboard stalkers. |

Yeah, I have some of those. Like T206 Camnitz arms up, which I have with EPDG, Cycle 460, and Sovereign 460 backs, and Camnitz arms down, which I have with EPDG, Polar Bear, and Tolstoi. Yet I don't have a Camnitz arms folded.

I had this happen with Harry Sutor. I bought the Gilmartin because it was (and still is) the only one I've seen for sale in my price range. The Bishop's I found the next day from the same guy. Then I was looking at Obaks, there he is, another Sutor. Then someone here on the board offered me the Zeenut because I was collecting Harry Sutor cards (by now I guess I was). Then I came across the Obak type 3, figured may as well. After that, I decided I may as well see what else I could find, and picked up the D310 and 311 from a random internet search. So, I never started out looking to collect Harry Sutor, but he kept popping up at prices I couldn't resist. So, anyone have the T4 Obak (besides the one I can't afford on e-bay), the T5 Pinkerton, or the Western Playground they would be looking to part with?
