Also, are there pieces that you know exist, but currently don't have?

Ricky, I do not own the broadside...I do not know anyone that collects the Nebraska Indians stuff...there never seemed to be any pattern in ebay bids where I could figure out my main competition. Lots of times my competition came from Native American collectors and not baseball collectors.
There are currently four items that I know exist but do not own.
-This postcard - a variation on one I already own, but I want all the variations.
This cabinet photo
This RPPC
And this broadside that was sold in an Oregon Trails auction in the mid 1990s.
There was also a letterhead that I lost out on about 5-6 years ago on ebay..I bid it up to $600 and still came in second. I lost out to someone that collects letterheads, not just baseball related either. The letter's content was about a Japanese team that Guy Green was intending to put together, but it was on NI stationary. I did win an identical envelope just recently though.
