Thanks! There are several different sets, actually throughout the years. Some years have small numbers in the sets so set completion is a real possibility.

Am well aware. Been working on all five sets off and on over the years. The Silver Borders are really great though, with some supposed tough SPs/rarities. I think it may be the nicest looking set of the five different Diamond Matchbooks sets out there, with the 1935 Black Border set being a really really close second in terms of looks, if not actually an equal. All are very underappreciated to my thinking.

Pleased to have these guys back in the fold. I had two different examples several years ago but let them go. Not this time around.

Very nice examples Lucas, congratulations.

Won some great cards in the previous Net54 front page auction, but felt compelled to share this W519 Schang from the lot. On the back it obviously depicts the bald brother of Wilson, Tom Hanks friend in the movie Cast Away. I have already named him Spalding.

Thanks Leon!

Wallie Schange? Huh?

Nice card, though.

One more off this list, thanks Tom! I'm now down to 2 remaining for the HOF Portrait subset (Matty and Green Cobb). I'm hoping to knock out the Matty this year...the Green Cobb...possibly never at the rate those are increasing unless I sell a lot off.
