T206 Sub Set 99.9% there thanks to Net 54 Members

[wonkaticket]

I looked for the other thread that was similar but I don’t remember what it was called sorry. But still wanted to share!

I have come very close after opening today’s mail to finishing this subset. Murphy still could be technically found with Red Hindu and Brown Lenox but none seem to be accounted for as of today. If you know of any please let me know.

I added the BL460 & also the Printers scrap which technically added another back for Murphy. The 350-460 Factory 30 2nd DIST N.Y. as there is no OP. Kind of cool IMO….

So I hope the board will forgive me as I post this but I needed to thank some folks who helped me get to where I am on this Murphy Sub Set I’ve been working on. Big thanks go out to the following folks, Scott B, Scott M, Craig D and Ron R.

Special thanks go to Jim R who played a major role in helping me put the pieces together on this one.

Thanks again to all who helped very happy with this one couldn't have done it without your help.

Cheers,

John

P.S. Paul should I list it now in the BST or wait a few minutes?

*Also let me know if the image is too big, I'll post a smaller.

Great job John, awesome accomplishment....

[sgbernard]

Great stuff, really fun picture.

[ChiefBenderForever]

Very cool, job well done and amazing sub set !! Does he have a T213 type 1 or type 3 you could add as well ?

[marvjung]

That is just too cool - way to go! I'm envious!

[uniship]

That picture is awesome. Verrry nice.

Steve great question according to the rules Ted has been working on with all of our inputs..since Murphy can be found with BL460 he should not be found with Uzit. Also since no Uzit most likely no AB460.

But that does mean he could show up with Red Hindu. As for Brown Lenox I have seen one other card of a player that has both brown and black Lenox versions..so who knows...that's why I'm keeping the check list open just in case.

As for Coupon I'm only aware of Type 2..

Here's what I have so far...looking for upgrades on the AB and Cycle if anyone would part with one..

Super collection! I enjoyed seeing that photo.

[CW]

Very nice, and it shows how a hobby can go beyond the cards, forming bonds and
friendships with those who share this sickness.... errrr, passion.

That image ranks up there among the coolest I've seen posted on here.

[Potomac Yank]

Great work.

Great team work ... Jim R. is one of the best with backs.

Keep us posted.

Again, words fail me.

That's a spectacular* collection, congrats John!

(*note: not breathtaking, like Elaine and ugly babies)

[AndyG09]

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Best,

Andy

[Jacklitsch]

Very, very impressive!!!

Is Uzit possible? (Pardon me if this is a dumb question that's been answered before).

You stole my thunder!

But I still think you should list the cards in the BST, tell us all to %$^# off and then continue to "make friends" on the Board with your positive disposition.

Well, fortunately for you, my lines of demarcation, concerning morality issues are drawn in the sand! You know how that sand is constantly shifting.

This leaves me with what politicians call, "versatility of conviction." I can do whatever I want and make it "OK".

[sbfinley]

Sick subset. Did you chose Murphy on a whim or did price and availability factor in.

[ethicsprof]

congratulations, John!!!
a magnificent collection!

best,
barry

[DanP]

Fantastic! I will always love looking at other collections.

Question, from a non-T206 guy:
Are there many players that have every possible back (except the Ty Cobb back of course, I don't want to start something ...)

Dan

[B O'Brien]

DANG!!! That is a big line of backs!
So are you gonna start the other pose to make the complete Murphy line with the 150 backs?
Thanks for showing,
Bob

[FUBAR]

This would make a great framed picture, im thinking about 12 x 24(or 36) size. Truly envious, great subset!
