My favorite collecting stories are Dan McKee reassembling the Alpha Engraving set, and my friend Jim Blumenthal finishing the N167 baseball set. In the case of the Alphas, the cards were all one of a kind. Some day I want to own one of them, only because the story is so great.

I know that these aren't cards, but the 1913 Cravats are a set of 27 (as of right now) and many in the set only have one known example. I'm guessing there are more unknown examples that will surface at some point.

This set of Tobin trade cards is pretty impossible too. There are 9 known in the set. I know that Frank Keetz was really close to completing this set too. Last I heard, he was at 8 of 9.

Yes, those Cravats felts are tough. Are you saying that a complete set of known Cravats exists or not?

I have the set of 27. It just wouldn't surprise me if more uncataloged examples emerge.

That is a major accomplishment. Congrats.

I would guess no one has come anywhere close to doing an E270 red border set. But I could be wrong too.
