Good news at the mailbox today, as the last needed card for my 1952 Bowman Large football set arrived!
#29 Hugh McElhenny RC "books" for $250 in NM condition. This eBay listing was BIN $29.95 or best offer. So I offered $24 and the seller accepted. Then I bought nine other '52 Large cards to upgrade or restock my doubles box, and the seller shipped all my stuff for three bucks!
Pro and College HOF member, Hugh is related to the Mcllhenny family from Louisiana, the makers of Tabasco Sauce.

I DID IT!

You've been circling the end of this set for a while, Larry. Glad you finished it off! Quite an accomplishment.

Picked up these RCs of Pats greats from N54 member NewEnglandbaseballist:



More on the Nance card in the next couple of days.

In the meantime, I'm dying to add a beater copy of Buoniconti's 63 Fleer RC. Anybody got one?

Congratulations, that is a great accomplishment. I've just started this project and it seems like it's going to take me awhile, those sp's are going to be brutal for me I think. But that's what makes it fun, I've really enjoyed your posts of your pick ups and I think your posts may have been an inspiration to me to start on the set myself. Thanks for sharing your journey.

Mike

Haven't posted here in a while, but I've picked up a few things recently, so I figured I'd share. Very pleased to finally add these mid-grade Baughs to my collection:
