T206 Obsession

[mrvster]

that dissection is insane! I still have palpatations please sell me / trade that one day

btw Leon....I have a cousin to your Multi.....it's a card that was in the same lot(from Nemo's in N.Y.C.)........I bought it from the same seller, same lot! same time.....I saved the original Ebay invoice from 1998....

Mclean Scrap(original seller described the card as "being cut from the sheet from someone who must have been drinking beer") ....

Very interesting Johnny..Thanks for showing the McLean. I had to go back and change the dissection i posted to the final one. It has the final yellow pass. Chris (hey Chris) is a genius at this stuff.

[mrvster]

Thank You! and yes, Chris is a master with that stuff

That Nemo story is very cool.....

there must have been a few more scraps in there besides Mclean and Mullaney

ALC was in the neighborhood...

and Mclean is def. scrapper

I have the obsession also, as you can see you are not alone

I am going for as much of the set as possible, so picking up a common is just as exciting to me as picking up a HOF'er. It's taken me around 7 years just to break the 100 mark-mainly because of money issues and condition issues-I want an average condition of VG to VG-EX. But, I will take a lower graded card if the eye appeal is right.

Mike (freakhappy)is right about being patient, that is the truth! There's no race, so enjoy the ride And collect how you want, it's all about whatever makes you happy.

Good luck hunting

Sincerely, Clayton

Hi, my name is Brenton and I'm an addict....

I try to pick up around 2 a month but it always fluctuates. I started in January 2013 and currently own about 30 t206 cards. I have bought from here, ebay and levi bleam. It has been an interesting journey so far.

It took me 20 years, on and off, to complete the set. I was not actively collecting it about half of that time. I tended to buy in lots of 5-30 when possible, though I picked up tough backs whenever I saw them along the way.
