What's your Monster number?

[shaunsteig]

346 for me. Got one card (the Lundgren) nearly 20 years ago, but only started collecting the set 18 months ago. Kinda need to slow down the pace a bit this year...

Happy holidays,
--S

My best and favorite.................. Picking the "worst" was a tad harder...

[Gradedcardman]

I am down to about 60 and hope to be complete less the Wagner and Doyle by the end of 2013 (for the second time)

[kmac32]

Zero as I don't collect the Monster

[mrvster]

I prefer a card with an erasure rather than to be ever "touched up" by anyone.....beaters don't bother me, but specific altercations do.....

I am about 50% complete: my score is 262. All lower-grade, mostly commons, most ungraded, no doubles.

At my current pace, I'll be there in another 20 years or so. I have too many hobbies.

[Scott L.]

I'm at 518 all graded ranging from SGC 10/PSA 1 to SGC 80/PSA 5. Missing big 4 Demmitt and O'Hara.

Landed number #520 through the REA auction. Ohara St. Louis Variation puts me at 520/520!!!

With the 513th pick in the 2019 draft, I have selected Frank Chance Red Portrait from Chicago....

Very cool! I love that card. Still trying to find one that fits my collection.

[jjp3rd]

thanks!

[unamuzd1]

Please update me to 485.

[BruceinGa]

Please move me up to 124, thanks.

[Kevin]

Add 2 to mine with my first transaction here (Ed Summers) and a pretty beat up Cy Young. (I think I might want you guys to check the card out, having a bit of buyers remorse.)

158

[sandmountainslim]

Just got a Clyde Milan so please move me to 51

[baseballfan]

Please add Up 3 more and expecting more

Up to 96 I believe

[rjackson44]

[RayBShotz]

Can I play?
Not sure if I might have been on the list as I've recently begun again. My 3rd try at this.
I currently own 9 with more coming in the mail.
Hope to be a regular updater.

Can I add to the mix? I'm starting small. I'll take my place at the bottom of the table.

I am the proud owner of 1 Harry Krause (Piedmont back).

....Everybody's got to start somewhere.

[Blapo]

Up to 111

[bobsbbcards]

Looks like my monster number is 423 (I was just introduced to this thread by Ryan....thanks, Ryan!).

[maddux31]

My MN stands at a whopping 3! Here they are, though I don't have a good scan of the Cobb as it is tucked away for safekeeping.

[Silverskulls]

I'm at 519 and looking for a Mordecai Brown (Throwing) Cubs on Shirt with a Sov or Hindu back to get to 520 (raw or A-2), in case anyone out there can help!

Thanks!

[parkerj33]

please add me to the list....my monster number is 520.

[frankbmd]

Gents,

The update for today is complete.

Welcome to 15 new monster numerophiles.

When posting indicate whether you number is going up or down or if it is your first post.
Finding people's previous post is becoming more difficult. this will help.

If you are on the list twice because i didn't find you, please let me know.

Please let me know if you have died, unless your cards were buried with you, so I can delete you from the list.

[Kevin]

Thanks Frank. I’m at 306 and going up.

[StraightRaceCards]

At 25 / 524 and loving the slow pick up process

[parkerj33]

please bump me to 600 (added magie this spring).

[Bobbycee]

By adding Cobb Bat Off at the National, my Monster # is now 518. Needing only Demmitt & O' Hara.

[toledo_mudhen]

and I've slowly moved my way up to 55 cards now -

[Cory]

My monster number is 183.

[bobsbbcards]

I'll be glad to take it over. See "What's your Monster number (2)?" thread. I'll continue to check back on this one to see if we have any strays.

[shaunsteig]

long overdue update... last post was 12/2011. Was at 346 then. Now 468. Def slowing down as harder and more expensive cards remain. But always encouraged by reading others' progress, please keep sharing.

[JakeStahl'sGloveSHows]

up to 479. def getting harder as reaching the most expensive (eg Cobbs) and least common.

24, think I am resigned to boston and providence team sets, and horizontals. Maybe a few select others

That's a good plan Den. This set will take me years. I've thought about breaking it into smaller sets first, maybe the Pirates and build from there. Breaking off small chunks here and there over time makes it more manageable.

[Econteachert205]

I hear you Donnie. Btw I am an absolutely huge Cobra fan. I talk about the Pittsburgh drug trials in my us history course. When Jim rice got into the hall I was hoping there would be a reappraisal of Parker's career. Guy belongs in. Al Oliver too for that matter. Not rod scurry tho.
