Doubted if a playing day Honus Wagner was ever a possibility, but then this pencil-marked 1909 E95 beauty came up on ebay and I knew it was the one for me!

Very happy to pick up the Hunky Shaw AB350 (Thanks, Jay). With only the Broad Leaf and the (alleged) EPDG left, this likely makes my Shaw back run "complete" at 7 cards.

Whenever I assume something, I make a wrong assumption.
Several weeks ago, unamuzd1 (hey, Morey) contacted me about whether a card he had seen on eBay with Howe’s stamp was one I needed. I responded it wasn’t among the approximate 120 I still needed. He asked if there was a list I had of the cards I needed and I responded it is a pretty long list, no one would actually want to look through it all. He asked again that I send him the list.
In the past week, he discovered that two of the cards he had purchased from Scott late last year were ones I had missed out on. Today, they rejoined the others as I try and build a complete set with Howe’s stamp. Thanks for being insistent, Morrie, and proving my assumptions wrong. What really has me pumped about the Mullen card is that it completes a page in the binder. My complete pages in the binder probably wouldn’t match anyone else’s, since I know Howe didn’t have either a Demmitt or O’Hara St. Louis. Everything after Demmitt is either one or two cards off from a “complete” set. I’m missing only one card on two other pages that I know exist with Howe’s stamp (both were in Scott’s auctions that I missed out on – Charlie Carr and Jimmy Jackson). I know the owner of a copy of the Carr card, but he hasn’t responded in several weeks after an initial agreement to sell. If you have any cards with Howe’s stamp that you might be willing to part with, please let me know. Several pages are missing five cards, many of which I’ve not seen an example of in almost 20 years. I’d be interested to hear if you have any of the missing 117 from here on out, even if you aren’t looking to sell or trade. Thanks.

It would be fitting if Ed were to legally change his name to Howe McCormick, because then I believe folks would naturally be more likely to get these T206 stamped cards bearing his name to him.
Brian (also, if he somehow were be able to take up residence at 500 W. Main Street in Gainesville Florida, if it still exists, then it would be so easy to just stick a first class stamp directly on the T206 card and send it merrily back from where it came from)
