The B&W versions are definitely more difficult. I would guess probably somewhere around 5-10 Sepia for every 1 B&W. I never had a preference and only have 1 B&W in my set.

The set sold in LOTG had 24 cards with 4 B&W and 2 w/name that were colored closer to B&W than Sepia.

I finished my set around 2 years ago or so - all cards with the names on the bottom - all SGC + PSA graded. As I remember, the Hoyt card was hard for me to find.

Nice cards Jim. It took me a long while to find Jimmie Foxx.

I just saw this on eBay.

$55K for a W554 Ruth Best of luck to him. I'm glad I completed the set when I did. If he manages to get that price, I suppose it'll benchmark my SGC 4.5 to at least $100K
