@molenick that O’Hara is one beautiful card! I believe the Dockman & Sons is the smallest subset with just 40 cards.

And also by far the most common...without looking at the pop reports I have a feeling that the total existing cards in the other three E92 sets combined (Croft's Candy, Croft's Cocoa, Nadja) don't come close to the total of Dockman cards available.

Thank you. FWIW, I have 8 Dockman, 5 Nadja, and 1 Crofts Candy.

Been a good month.

I’ve been doing genealogy research with my mom for months, mostly because there is a lot available for her mother’s family tree and not much available for the families of my other three grandparents. Anyway, I talked to my aunt (mom’s sister) on Sunday about all of the stuff I found. She asked about her dad’s side. I said I had very little, and then she just drops “My dad’s cousin was boxer Mickey Walker. Supposedly he was pretty good.”

I asked my mom about it and she said “We called him uncle Mickey!” then tells me stories I’m hearing for the first time in my life about a guy who has been ranked as high as the 11th best boxer ever. How did that not come up during three months of research talk? Crazy. So I had to buy a card. I’ll get more in the future

Great pickups for everyone for this month. I'm continuing to work on the 1936 sport stamp run for Gehrig. Happy to get the Washington Herald one this month.

Picked up a couple T215's. Although the Doyle is not labeled correctly, I will probably just leave it in the holder as is.
