I guess I'm lucky in that I've always liked assortments and variety. I've never desired to complete a set. I'm a restless sort.

From what you wrote, it would appear that it doesn't matter what the rest of us think. You probably will not be satisfied with anything short of a master set. FWIW, I personally think that you need examples of the high numbers for a basic set. If I'm not mistaken, the high numbers have different bio info on the back even though the fronts are the same. Also, to be complete, you probably need both Greenberg and Greenburg.

Technically, the Diamond Stars is considered an extension of the Old Judge set, so you're going to have to get those cards too.

When these things start to become an aggravation it moves from being a hobby to self-torture.
I think the answer to your questions is yes, they are part of the set and to have a "complete" set you would need them. What you would have without them is a partial or low number set.

I used to collect Diamond Stars. I was working on putting together a complete set. My opinion at the time was that would include the high numbers. If I try it again, I'll try to complete it with the high numbers.

It's your collection, you get to do it as you want it. I have a t205 set without the stray line variations. Doesn't bother me in the least. I have a T206 519 working toward 520. It is unlikely I would get a Plank and honestly i think the Magie is overrated...and if I get to a 520, I'll be quite happy. You don't think it's complete? I don't care, it's my collection not yours.
