All I have left are the six biggest Dawgs, the non-Nat'l Doyle (NY Hands Above Head), the inaugural HOF class, players celebrated in movies, poetry and song and a few HOF that are now by anyone with more than a passing interest in the history of the game. It grows questionable as to how much further I can take this. It is a given that my pace will slow but I will keep looking



After these five, my new MN is 484.9



242. Willie Keeler (Batting) P150

57. Mordecai Brown (Cubs On Shirt) P150

110. Sam Crawford (With Bat) SC350

313. John McGraw (Portrait No Cap) P150

172. Ed Foster OM



Not my scan but.....

Mike - That's awesome! I often wonder if it easier to put the if cards for last or if doing so will make me want to give up when I get there. What are your thoughts?

I always intended to get the tough ones out of the way first, it's was simply a case of 486 other cards coming my way first.

I'm starting the weekend at 463 - hoping to pick up Goodwin's green Cobb next week if no one else bids so please lay off.

Counted today and I'm up to 143.

[leaflover]

Down to 260.

Changed focus with a bunch of cards consigned and many more to sell. You can move me down to 49 in my "collection."

Slow going but I have made it to 450.
