What's your Monster number (2)?

[AndyG]

Current total is 600 (2) and 520 (2)

[Kevin]

I really wish I invested in cards in the 2000s rather than women and booze.

[Oscar_Stanage]

Please update my monster # to 208.

498. Been here for a while. Struggling to crack the 500 barrier. Thanks for keeping this up.

[bobsbbcards]

Sorry I missed the posts on 6/29. I promise to do better.

I am up to 133/520. Built a good checklist to track percentages: 25% of 520, 28% of HOF cards, 24% of SLers. I have put together my own estimate of the total cost, and I am 21% of the expected cash. As time has passed, I get less and less excited about O’Hara/Demmit St Louis so it may be that I do 518. Anyhow, here are some of the better pickups so far. Thank you to many on this board who have sold me some fairly priced cards.

Just crossed off a bunch after a crazy summer, I am at 504 with some spendy cards in my future! That's the fun part of the hunt!

[Vintageloz]

Hi Bob, my new number is 40!

[trambo]

Set #2 for me (#93 on your list) can be removed. I got it to 520 and decided I didn’t need 2 sets. It’s on its way to a new home now. My 680 is great and better than ever!!

[toledo_mudhen]

Hey Bob -

Have moved up a bit - Now at 121 Slabbed T206's

Thanks

[Mattymc727]

125 for me, most for a raw binder. 12 slabs for a Boston Red Sox case

Taking a break now! Unsure if I’ll go 520…but I’m young!

[bobsbbcards]

Everybody's updated!

P.S. Troy, you still have a trambo (3) set on the list with 30 cards. Should I remove that one? Lemme know.

Thanks for checking. I probably have more than 30 doubles but please remove that one, too! Appreciate you keeping me on the straight and narrow....haha!

That's the sole reason for my existence.

Everybody is (should be) up to date. Let me know if you find another card in your sofa....or the neighbor's sofa (even better).

[brewing]

I’m at 519

[tycobb]

266 for me please.

[Bobbycee]

Just added O'Hara, St. L. Now at 519, needing only Demmitt St.L for 520.

[chrisn28]

Go Bob, so close! Saving one of the toughest for last.

My number can be updated to 489.

[Bobbycee]

Just added Demmitt St. L. Made it to 520!! What a ride, loving every minute of it.

[Cory]

On "finishing" the monster!

Congratulations!!!! Very happy for your culmination of the chase.

Hi Bob

Please post my monster number as of 6/8/24 to 518. I just did a trade to re acquire Red Cobb

Very excited about having him again!!

Ken Rhodes

[toledo_mudhen]

I'm at 193 acquired

[rjackson44]

Now 233

[yanks87]

I’m at 512, one Cobb bat on away from being done, (my version of done)

[HerbieMoran]

507....getting there!

[Eric72]

First T206 I’ve added in a while. Please bump my MN up to 133.

[B O'Brien]

Since I’m not a set collector I never really thought about my monster number, but as I’m digging through the spread sheet I decided to put it together.

Current Monster number is 90.

Monster HOFer Number is 72.

Master HOFer Monster Number is 103.

Current Master Monster Number 127!

Thanks,
Bob

[Kevin]

Looking at the list, I was at 306 in January 2022. Bump me up to 318 with the arrival of Jimmy Sheckard today.

I guess the 2025 goal would be adding about 20 or 30 cards.

[Mike Eisenbath]

505. I've been crushing it lately

I have 20 but am looking at buying a Plank. How much would that get me?

[Johnny T]

I'm at 518 and will probably stop there...now upgrading some beaters.

[Howe’s Hunter]

New Name: Howe's Hunter (previously StuckInOmaha)
# of Cards: 417 of 522 (there is no possibility of a Demmit or O'Hara in this collection)

Looks like the last update (and last post , AND last activity of any type) by Bob, the Monster Number caretaker, was almost 9 months ago. Hopefully all is well in Monster land...perhaps if we don't hear back from him after a month or two, someone else can man the helm? Hate to see Frank's creation wither on the vine. I would do it, but I am already overwhelmed with the responsibilities of manhandling two similar competing, and some might say, superior threads (the E90-1 Kraken and T205 EGGS). And I don't think Frank would want his legacy to tarnish under the control of such a rapscallion such as myself.

So perhaps my little missive above will get things rolling again.

I would be willing to manage the Monster Number list. Frank started the original thread around the same time I joined Net54. I've followed it (and this one) ever since.

I don't claim to be the best person for the job; however, I've got the time and enthusiasm.

[Mike Eisenbath]

I'm up to 513 different graded and an additional 225 different raw
