Burdick the Amazing
Posted By: Chuck R
I would love to read his biography...anyone who is a spy and a collector is worth getting to know. One of the highlights of my collecting was learning something in particular about his collection. Among the cards he donated to the British Museum was what is apparently the closest near set of the N-224 Kinney Military Series...Wharton-Tigar had 621 of the 622 cards. Martin Murray of Murray cards has 618 and I know of one long-time American collector who had 615 (I have 611). I found out that the one card Wharton-Tigar was missing is one that I have. Not only was that a thrill, but it also gave me hope that this seemingly impossible set could conceivably be finished.
