Great Topic Dave!

I've been doing the T205 in mid grade for maybe 12 years now.
Actually started about EX and resigned myself to collect any decent ones, maybe 10% are graded and those are actually the lowest grades I have. I need 4 or 5 upgrades someday, no rush.

Progress so far is that I need only Wilhelm, McLean and Harmon (both ears)to complete a base set. 206/209 cards{Front variations only for me}

Notice that I left a couple commons on purpose. I want to complete the set by someday plucking a mid-grade common off a dealer table...just like the way I started this set in 1996 !!

Other sets I have going:
~~York Caramel (type 1 or type 2 mixed) I have 41/60 or whatever the final checklist turns out to be...
~~E95 I have 20/25 cards...the big ones needed
~~1936 Goudey I have 23/25 cards (need just Greenberg/Crosetti)
~~1934-36 Diamond Stars I have 56/108
~~HOF MLB player collection (Gehrig upgrade needed, most pre-1900 needed, all others in the bag, pile, box or carton)
