That's a typical and unfortunate sign of the times. How much money do these guys need? Sad.

Also, I didn't think 108 sounded exactly right, so I referred to my list, and it's actually 104 possible signed P/S.

Lloyd Waner is by far the most rare, I believe I heard that there might be only one authentic one out there. I hope that's not the case, but either way, it's incredibly hard to find and understandably expensive.

Following Waner, in no particular order, would be Satchel Paige, Walt Alston, Joe Cronin and Earl Averill. In the next group down, still tough to find but not as tough, would be Stan Coveleski, Red Ruffing, Waite Hoyt, Burleigh Grimes, Kirby Puckett and Richie Ashburn.

I have an extra Puckett and grimes if anyone needs them. They are tough to find.

I've been collecting the set for years. I am down to needing Nolan Ryan, who I have not gotten around to mailing to, and replacing my Satchel Paige, which I sold as I was not thrilled with the signature. I also sold my Paul Kerr, as I was made an offer I would've been dumb to refuse, but once I see another one up for sale, I might jump back in.

very cool. i think nolan ryan is going to do a signing at his foundation soon.

im glad to see other perez steele collectors here!

do they make ultra pro pages that hold perez steele psa holders by chance? do you guy put the slabs in one of those team set type bags to prevent scratching or just stack the slabs together? thanks

Personally, I don't have mine slabbed, and ones that I've bought slabbed I've cracked out. I have them in normal 5x7 hard plastics.
