It's interesting to see the multiples of Devore, Sweeney, and Oakes in such a small collection. Was the collector hoarding his favorite players or were some Helmar Stamps simply easier to come by compared to others?

T331 College Yells stamp series.
And that reminds me, this auction ended last week, and I didn't see anyone talking it up. Postaco Stamps Thought it was a pretty nice collection and seemed to go for less than I expected; last post about them I could find here said that commons went for $25-40 each. So to get that many HOFs in the lot was probably a steal at $20 apiece.

I'm at @ 60% complete after starting a Helmar Stamp (baseball only) set in the summer of 2013. Many of mine are in horrible condition though! I could have used a collection like this one to get started!!
I know that Brian K. has a complete set (baseball players + actresses) that he just finished this year. I believe there are only two other known complete baseball sets known. I love seeing them all strewn about in the box like that (from Leon's post). Welcome to the board EK! Let me know if you want to do any trading!!

........if you've indeed joined Net54, here's how those little stamps were packaged (but first inside the glassine envelope, of course):
Good luck! Michael |

Here's a link to scans of the Helmar baseball set and the master set of the Helmar actresses (the actresses have border variations, the baseballers don't).
