Joe--Congratulations on an impressive acquisition. I like your information about the importance of the group, and I like your position presentation.

Bravi!

Cheers, Mike

I don't think it's a small collecting feat at all.

A BIG Congrats on your completion of The BIG Four.

Awesome Joe! Congrats on the Big Four and the Grand Slam! Now where are the Detroit OFers and battery? Or do they not exist?

Goodwin & Co. issued cabinets for 14 different Detroit players and Manager in 1888. I also like to include Bennett, he wasn't issued a cabinet until 1889 w/ Boston, but the photo is dated to his time with Detroit. With Bennett I have 9 of 15 possibilities but one of them is Manager Watkins, so I need one more position player to field a nine.

The Met (Burdick collection) has the six cabinets I need, so between the two of us we are complete

As we all know the hunt is a lot of the fun. Only 6 more needed? That should be a piece of cake? You probably need just about a half more of a lifetime.
