The one card in your collection that took you the longest to obtain..

I started collecting Old Judges in 1997. Picked up my first, Tim Keefe, from Terry Knouse at a Gloria Rothstein White Plains show on January, 19, 1997. I was immediately drawn to the more oddball poses in the set. Two of which were the Ewing and mascot and Williamson and mascot.

The Ewing and mascot was "relatively easy" to get - took me "only" seven years. The Williamson and mascot proved more elusive - that took thirteen.

I'd say it was time well spent Kevin.

Superb examples.

Ewing/Mascot was my card that I wanted for the longest time before getting. First saw it when I was nine in a baseball card calendar. Got in 18 years later. The Williamson Mascot took me a couple weeks to get. Never saw it before getting Lew Lipset's book, then once I did, I wanted one. An example showed up on ebay about a week later and I won it.

Ummmm.....Jim's accomplishment(s) notwithstanding, I'd vote for both of you!
