A few questions about M116 Sporting Life

[DeanH3]

The M116 is a great choice for a Wagner portrait. They usually won't break the bank.

Impossible not to love M116s in my opinionated opinion.

Bet you say that to all the boys. Nahnah, just kidding.
Red Sox team set is a splendid idea. Anyone have a quick checklist?

That would be a pretty realistic set to accomplish considering you have two of the toughies. It took me over 5 years to complete my cubs team set but I did include a cubs wrapper, three blank backs, a proof. I am only missing an autographed one which most likely wont happen.

Thanks very much Bill. Hooper is one M116 I'd love to land. Been the penultimate bridesmaid a couple of times already. Cicotte could be a toughie because of the Black Sox thing. Then there's the recently discovered Frank Smith - Boston which will be all but impossible. Otherwise the rest are probably gettable although some will always be tougher than others. Might just give it a whirl.
