Still looking for these cards. Give me a shout if you have any to part with.

There's an auction for 9 currently running on eBay. Not my auction and I'm sure you already know. But, just in case . . .

I appreciate the heads up, but yeah I stumbled across that auction myself. Those are some nice looking ones and its rare that you find someone auctioning that many at once (heck, its rare to find nice ones offered on Ebay at any time).

Again, thanks for passing the information along.

If you don't mind me asking, which two do you have (not trying to angle on you, just curious).

Trust me, if you finish it in your lifetime, you have accomplished something extraordinary in collecting which most people don't even realize the magnitude. I have collected these only for a couple of years now, but have discussed this issue with many sophisticated collectors who have been toiling with them for longer than I have been alive. As of today, I have only heard of three confirmed complete sets--and one of those is a set with mixed Ashland/Aetna backs. Never heard of anyone who has completed the master set of All Ashland/All Aetna.
