T206 - Hard to Find SL'ers?

[pgellis]

In no particular order:

Foster, Ellam, Bay, Breitenstein, Carey.........

I also think that Shaughnessy is tough, but not because it is any rarer than others, but rather that it may be the most popular and sought after SLer.........some collectors may have even hoarded Shag over the years.

Hey John,

Sometimes you just have to settle for low-budget Hookers....

I think you are right about the "hoarding" aspect for the Shaughnessey card. I consider myself a "hoarder" of Lundgren Chicago cards, and I remember back in 2007 talking to a board member about how he owned many Shag cards and bought them whenever he saw them for sale.

Agree with all of these. I must have gotten lucky with Foster. I've seen it on several lists, but it was one of the first SLers I got.

I'd add one to the list -- Dutch Jordan.

Thanks for all the responses. I hope to add quite a few SL'ers to my set by the end of 2011, so I figured I would tackle a couple of tough ones early on.

Thanks again!

Speaking of SL's. I just came across a few that I am selling on eBay.

Check it out.

Thanks, but I picked up Reagan a couple of days ago.
