Default Obak 150 Set Finished Today


Excited today one of my final cards on my want list arrived. This is the final Obak set for me minus of course T4’s LOL. I finished just recently the 1910 T212 Obak 150 series with the help of some board members and some luck via eBay.



Some of the unique poses from the 150 series make the set just very cool compared to the main stream more common 175 series cards. I’m still looking for upgrades so if anyone has any 150 cards for sale that are nice please let me know. Huge thanks to Mike Peich for getting me the bulk of the set and Leon for helping me with one of the last cards on the want list.

Cheers,

John

Nice job John,

I was stuck at 20% on this set recently, but the influx of cards onto eBay helped me pick up a few - now at 27.5% complete....Man, that is an accomplishment to finish this tough subset!
