Hey Brian:

my brother found me a Doc White - no quotation marks on Doc at the Nat'l. Please give me another "*"

How nice of your sibling. Just shows you that not all brothers are a pain in the asterisk. I will hang another star alongside your score.

He's a GOOD Brother, but CHEAP! I'm sure that he made $$$$ when he sold me the White!!! A little anyway...

Sitting at 379.

2 Hoblitzell remain.

I guess better to be missing a couple of Hoblitzells versus Cobb and Young, for example. Because you already have a couple of Hoblitzells...how many Hoblitzells does a person really need, anyhow?

That’s an excellent question BP.
For most sets I don’t collect variations because they (to each his own) don’t excite me.
Having a fully different pose? Sure thing.
Having a stray dot /stray line or an asterisk or something ? No thank you.

But for the awesome EGGS quest, I find myself wanting those slight imperfections and changes. Ive cracked into a few of them which has prompted a decent EGGS tally. But these are hard to find in T205. Everyone is chasing about 10-12 cards from the carton.
I’ll still try but I haven’t added a new yolk in a long time.
