2016 Collecting goal accomplished

Nice going Jesse. I started my set in 2002, but it took me until last year to get four Cobbs that I was satisfied with.

Congrats! That is a significant achievement!

Thanks, I supposed it helped that I was only after 4 cards instead of 524. A little easier to focus my efforts.

I just got the other two bank from the bank. Hopefully this picture will turn out better than the last one.

c'mon jesse...those cards are worthy of high res scans!!!!

Lol I know, I tried altering the photo size on my phone but they still upload on this site as a small file for me. I have a scanner but can't get it to work. One of these days I'll buy a new one.

Nice jesse. as you know I have been doing the same 4 Cobb run myself over the past year. Still waiting to find a nice bat-on version. I even tried to upgrade my red or green.

Here is a next idea, I consider doing (which I got a start on this year) is doing the 4 Ruth Goudey run (the yellow, red, bat and green portrait)
You posted some of your card on Collector Focus, just add them there and someone can paste them here or whichever.

Thanks Chris, I got lucky and got the last two from the same guy.

I tried to take your suggestion and added a few cards. The Cobbs didn't turn out much better as the files were too big to load directly from my phone and didn't work at all after I emailed them to myself and loaded from my computer. I know the solution is just to get a decent scanner but as I rarely sell cards on my own I haven't had the need. It would be nice to look through better scans though as most of these cards are at the bank most of the time.

As for the Goudey Ruth run the green and red one don't appeal to me as much. I have a 144 and would like a yellow to go with it though.
