What's your E107 number?

[TUM301]

E 107`s have always been my favorite set. Picked up my 1`st ones about 8 years ago and now up to 14. Nothing nearly as nice as the ones posted here but like many others always on the lookout for affordable beaters to add to the collection. Here`s a couple of mine, enjoy seeing what other members have of this great set !

My peak was 16 HOFers and 2 commons. So, I guess 18. Easily my favorite set of all time.

Beautiful examples, Scott. Not bad leftovers to show!

I own just one, the Jimmy Collins. I used to own the George Davis along with a McGraw (not pictured), but now I'm down to just the Collins.

This set is a longtime favorite of mine since I've been in the hobby and I suppose I have a bit of a history with it I topped out at around 42 quite a few years ago. Included in that 42 were several HOFers- Waddell, Willis, Flick, Plank and Joss.

About that time I also wrote an article for OldCardboard as well. I believe that was for their 4th issue in the summer of 2005. Had some help and scans donated from several board members at that time too.

After selling off those type 1s, I focused squarely on the 7-card Type 2 subset and had 6 of the 7 at one point before tapping out. Kind of wish I had kept going with those but I believe I wanted a house a little more that year and that Delehanty which was worth 12-15k at that point, was tying up a little too much of my financial resources.

I recently started collecting again and have been trying to snag commons whenever I can. I'm up to about 19 right now. I've won a couple nice ones from the Legendary auction offerings, however the tougher commons seem to be eluding me right now as bidding on those tends to get kind of aggressive. I have a feeling that some of the bigger collectors with far more wealth than I are currently kicking my butt on those.

So I guess my plan is to take the next 30 years (lol) and see where I'm at. I'm only collecting commons and my goal is to get 100 of them to start off with. I'm 37 years old now, so hopefully there's enough time to see this project through...heh!

Here's a nice Freil I picked up recently....

My one and only

About the same time Mr. McQueen was collecting them (which always happens ) I was trying to accumulate as many as possible. Never had more than 15 or so at once, but have had many single cards since parting with them. Only hofer I've had was McGinnity which might be the same example that other board members have had.

Also had a few from the famous stained, mouse bitten group.

It's like a bad relationship you feel compelled to just keep going back to...lol.

Neat story, Rob, I had forgotten that you had a pretty nice grouping of these as well back in the day
