I just purchased my first Oxford card and was curious about the set. What HOFers in the set are the toughest to find? I think I got a steal on this card, but I am not sure since I have never really looked at them before now. Curious to see scans of other cards from the group.

Here's one, bought as a type. Don't really know which cards are the toughest.

Is that the true look of that card? Is that the only card that looks that way or did something else happen to it?

Bryan - it's a nice set - another one of the under-appreciated 1920s issues. It is chock full of HOFers (14 of the 20 cards). I bid on that card, and I think the ending price was about right. It's not as tough as the V100s or the V89s, but a difficult issue nonetheless.

Bryan,
That was a great deal and it looks great for the grade. I sold mine last year in the same grade (but a little more worn) for $210.

Nice pick up!

Accidentally posted twice so I thought I would throw this in:

I also found out today my Black Berry Wheat beer finished in 1st place for the Sam Adams home brew contest for fruit beer!

One more!

I am a sucker for portraits - so maybe that is why I like the cards so much. For some reason I always seem to buy the portrait cards over any others

I think Sisler is the toughest card in the set. A beater sold at Hunt's for over $1000.00. I also need that Rousch Brian! Let me know if it is available. Thanks Dan.

Bryan,

I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but neither Alexander is for sale. My apologies.

BVH, please burst my bubble as well about the Rousch. The suspense is killing me!

God, I'm becoming a sadist-none of the Oxfords are for sale or trade.

shuuuuuuuuuuu thanks Brian, I was really sweating there for a minute. Glad that is over. Thanks for sharing the scan as I have never seen the Rousch. My best, Dan.

The cards are great looking in my opinion. The more I collect the more I am drawn to those black and white picture cards. m101-4 and m101-5 cards are great as well. Thank you everyone for sharing them. I saved all the photos for my virtual collection. I hope everyone that posted doesn't mind.
