raise your hand if when you saw the title of this thread and who started it you thought it was going to be a out another case of heritage’s crazy high shipping charges or some other slight they committed?

gnaz01 07-22-2019 05:43 PM

.. When I saw the name I was expecting a lot of CAPS and exclamation points. Congrats Dan.

It would be a real treat to see the set. It would be a testimony to being focused and a determination to corral these exceptionally scarce cards. As everyone else has said "Congratulations !!"

Sure I will gladly spend the time to post it since I spent 40+ years finishing it!

Good idea Hank, will get that up in next few days

:eek:

cardinalcollector 07-24-2019 04:47 PM

I appreciate the fact that they are all raw.

Nice accomplishment Dan

CuriousGeorge 07-24-2019 06:23 PM

That is incredible Dan, major congrats!!

JLange 07-24-2019 06:27 PM

Very Cool!
 
Very cool set, Dan! Thanks for sharing!

danmckee 07-24-2019 06:40 PM

Thanks for all of the kind words fellow collectors.

asphaltman 07-24-2019 06:46 PM

Dan - any idea how many other Uncle Jack sets are actually out there ? Can’t be many if any.

midmo 07-25-2019 12:54 AM

That was the one card I really wanted from that Heritage auction, but I was extremely sick and completely forgot about it. Seeing that it went to a good home makes me feel better about missing out. Congrats Dan, awesome set!

leftygrove10 07-25-2019 02:58 AM

Wow. Very nice, Dan! Congratulations!

2dueces 07-25-2019 02:54 PM

Wow. That is impressive. Congratulations!

Rickyy 07-25-2019 04:37 PM

Wow...that's a tough set...congrats Dan!

brianp-beme 07-25-2019 04:45 PM

Man, I feel lucky I have one as a type card. A full set is beyond belief, got examples of many tints, and they look in nice shape...and raw too. Grand Slam!

Brian

BuzzD 07-25-2019 04:57 PM

I have never seen one, much less a set!

I believe a set can easily be put together if you have four decades to spare.

Brian

BeanTown 07-25-2019 07:28 PM

Congrats Dan!! What was more satisfying to complete..... The Alpa Baltimore set or the Uncle Jacks?

I would have thought that in 40 years time, Dan would have easily completed a master set (all the different colors) of Uncle Jacks, something a little more challenging than merely a basic set! :D

Hankphenom 07-26-2019 09:09 AM

So cool. I can't remember, is your Washington Times set complete?
